One game you can play right now, and one we're still taking apart and putting back together.

Upshot

A one-button arcade game about aiming slightly better than last time.

Your arrow spins around a ring. Tap to fire it at the next one. Catch it and you keep climbing. Miss and you fall. Every ring spins a little faster, and after a while some of them start to wander. You'll say "one more" at least four times.

Players: 1
Controls: Tap, click or Space
Runs on: Any browser, phone or laptop
Price: Free

Game two

Untitled for now.

It's further along than a napkin sketch and nowhere near ready to show you. Playtesters see it first, rough edges and all.

House rules

We spend our working hours on order bots and document assistants. Very sensible stuff. Games are where we get to play with the same tools, and these are the three things every one of them has to pass before it leaves the building.

Fun in ten seconds.: If a game needs a tutorial video, we go back and fix the game. You should get it by the second tap.
Small and finished.: We'd rather ship a tight little game you actually finish than keep teasing a huge one that's "coming soon" for three years.
Plays where you are.: Phone on the bus, laptop between meetings. Open a link and you're in. No account, no 2 GB download for something you'll play for five minutes.

Want to break our next game before anyone else does?

We send early builds to a small list of playtesters. It's not a newsletter. You'll get a link when there's something worth playing, and a place to tell us exactly what's broken.
