Barely Developers

Start your game development journey in your mom's garage! Create your own games, experiment with genres and features, research new technology, and watch your games rise to the top of the charts or completely flop.

Turn your tiny garage into the game studio of your dreams! Upgrade your computers, move into bigger offices, decorate your workspace, and build a company that feels like your own.

Hire your dream team... or whatever you can afford. Manage employees with their own personalities, friendships, and problems. Keep everyone happy, deal with workplace drama, and try to get some actual work done.

Make your mark on the gaming industry! Build a loyal fanbase, compete with rival studios, create hit franchises, and work your way from a nobody in the garage to an industry leading AAA developer.

Additional Game Features:

• Build Your Legacy: Become known for your favorite genres, win awards, and watch your studio's reputation grow.

• Run Your Business: Take contracts, negotiate with publishers, market upcoming games, and manage your finances.

• Keep Up With the Industry: Research new technology, release on different consoles, and even develop your own gaming console.

• Expect the Unexpected: Deal with computer fires, power outages, lazy employees, office drama, and occasional visits from Mom.

• Play With Friends: Build your studio alone or invite up to 3 friends to develop games and run the company together.
