There is an ephemeral quality to game development, a space wizard magic of undefineable things that few can properly explain — This is our trade.

We're here to lend our time, thought, and mana to bolster your projects in ways few others will ever recognize, helping you make the best game possible.

Exploration

There are things about your game you have not thought of. Nobody has. Nobody sane would. But, we'll think of them and then tell you.

Revision

You've changed the game (a few times) and you're not sure if it's getting better or worse. At arms length, we can see the real difference.

Satisfaction

How you personally feel about your own game is more important to your actual life than anything else. We care about your goals, not the product.

Narrative

Our critical expertise in storytelling can uncover deeper expression, and reveal the untapped desire lines that engage true player variance.

Flow

There is a sixth sense for the easy groove of experience. It knows what clicks deep down in the lizard brain, and smooths your rough.

How Much of Our Attention Do You Need?

All our friends get consistent contact, open conversation, and free questioning.
Paying us lots of money means your game occupies more headspace between chats.

Vague Presence

We know you exist.

We Care We Care a LOT

Please, guys... We are poor and/or students!!!

We know you exist.

Monthly check-ins when you need them. Async feedback on documents, designs, or builds. We're not deeply embedded, but your project is on our radar and we're paying attention when you reach out. Good for maintaining a connection and getting occasional outside perspective.
