How it works

One game at a time.

Mole Madness, a smaller game, came first and is already released.

  • Godot

    Code, writing, design and art direction all happen under one roof, as ultragecko.

  • Since 2021

    Heart of the Sea began as Pirate Conquest in Ren’Py, then moved to Godot.

  • Players first

    The game is released in parts, and player feedback sets what gets built next.
