Games for iPhone and Playdate

Small games with a beginning, a middle and an end. A fox spirit crossing a twilight forest. A puzzle you solve by tilting the world. Worlds you can finish in an evening, and will want to visit again.

01 The Intention

One tool, one craft, zero noise.

Every instrument in this collection is designed for a single dedicated practice. We do not bury simple tasks under complex settings, bloated feature sets, or algorithmic recommendations.

02 The Independence

Local files and perpetual ownership.

You buy these tools once. They live directly on your device, work completely offline, and keep all your photographs, writing, and documents strictly in your own custody.

The Bench, a weekly letter

Every Tuesday, a short letter from the studio: one app worth a closer look, one small idea for using it well, and a glimpse of what is being made next.
