Build Your Indie Game with Confidence
You have talent and vision, but turning ideas into successful games takes more than creativity. We provide the structure, guidance, and connections that help indie developers navigate challenges and reach players worldwide.
You're Not Alone in These Challenges
Many talented developers face similar struggles. You might have gameplay mechanics working beautifully in your head, but translating that vision into reality feels overwhelming. Perhaps you've started multiple projects only to get stuck in the messy middle where progress slows and motivation wavers.
Marketing your game might feel like a foreign language, and the thought of pitching to publishers or investors creates anxiety. You see other indie games succeeding and wonder what they know that you don't. The truth is, most successful indie developers didn't figure it out alone, they had guidance, structure, and support at critical moments.
Without clear milestones and experienced mentorship, even promising projects can stall. The European gaming ecosystem offers opportunities, but navigating it requires connections and insights that take years to build independently. You need someone who understands both the creative and business sides of indie development.
A Structured Path Through Development
Our approach combines Berlin's startup thinking with game development expertise. Instead of vague advice, you receive actionable frameworks that address specific challenges at each stage of your project.
Milestone Planning
Break overwhelming projects into manageable phases with clear goals and realistic timelines that keep momentum strong.
Expert Mentorship

From Concept to Completed Game
The journey from idea to launch transforms your skills and confidence. Our framework supports you through each phase with practical tools and guidance.
Foundation Phase
You arrive with scattered ideas and uncertainty about next steps. We help clarify your vision, identify core mechanics, and create a development roadmap that feels achievable.
Development Phase
With structure in place, you build your game with regular milestone reviews. Problems get solved before they become crises, and your skills grow through each challenge.
Polish Phase
Your game takes shape, and we focus on the details that make it memorable. Playtesting reveals what works, and refinements bring everything together.
Launch Phase
Marketing and launch planning become manageable with clear strategies. You learn how to present your game effectively to press, players, and potential partners.
Growth Phase
Post-launch support helps you understand what's working and what needs adjustment. You develop the confidence to plan your next project with clarity.
The Outcome
You complete your game with skills that transfer to future projects. More importantly, you build confidence in your ability to navigate the entire development process independently.
