Mandatory Internship (Pflichtpraktikum)

About Us

We are an independent game development studio based in Munich, working with international partners across different genres and platforms.

What drives us is a genuine passion for the projects we build — from early ideas to shipped games. We care about quality, ownership, and creating games that players actually enjoy.

Our team brings together experienced developers, artists, and designers who value direct communication, honest feedback, and collaboration. We focus on developing games with intent and continuously improving how we work together.

• Game Development (Programming)

• Art (2D / 3D / UI, depending on your focus)
