Art-led
Games with a sketchbook pulse: handmade ideas, sharp silhouettes and room for weirdness.
UK indie games studio
Weird little games. Big messy feelings.
Stinkbug Games makes art-inspired indie games about playful release, tactile interaction and making something new from the mess.
What is Stinkbug Games?
An art-led indie studio with a bug in its sketchbook.
Stinkbug Games is an early-stage indie studio making games that are expressive, tactile and a little bit strange in the correct direction.
The work blends satisfying interaction, odd humour and a calming edge: not a sermon, not a lecture, just games that give the player something to do with the noise.
These are games for poking at weird messy human feelings in a calmer way: press the button, move the object, make the noise smaller by giving it a shape.
What we make
Games for poking the bruise, then drawing a face on it.
Tactile
Objects should feel good to touch, break, move, collect and reassemble.
Fun first
The work can have emotional texture without forgetting it is meant to be played.
A little offbeat
Strange on purpose, warm underneath, allergic to beige corporate energy.
Why Stinkbug?
A tiny mascot. A useful amount of chaos.
The bug is handmade, slightly wonky and instantly itself. That is the studio signal: lo-fi character, black-background confidence, warm yellow lines, no fake polish.
