Whales Don't Fly is an independent game studio. We make our own games, build games for clients, and develop serious games that teach, train and explain.
We start with one rule that feels good in the hand and build the whole game around it. Here is what we are working on.
A real-time wildfire strategy game in miniature.
Send the crews, cut the breaks, and hold the fire until the rain comes. Fifteen parks, each a tiny world on the table, and a fire that spreads faster uphill and jumps with the wind.
Fire runs faster uphill
Sparks ride the wind
Hold until the rainThe craft is the same: a small team, a playable build early, and a lot of testing.
Games we want to play ourselves, for PC, Mac and mobile. Built in Unity, tested in the open with our players.
Our gamesYou have the idea, the brand or the license, we build the game. From the first prototype to the store release, or as a team that joins yours.
Work for hireGames that teach, train or explain: for schools, museums, companies and public bodies. Playful first, so the message sticks.
Serious gamesWe are a small indie studio. We like games that are easy to start and hard to put down, worlds that look like toys on a table, and rules you understand by watching.
What we learn on our own games goes into the work for our clients, and the other way round. You talk to the people who build your game.
