ABOUT
Small studio. Weird games. Built on purpose.
Our Story
Scuffed Studios was founded in 2016 as a solo-dev outfit doing mostly work-for-hire on indie projects, prototypes, and contract builds. Years of shipping other people's visions taught us which weird ideas actually survive playtest — and which ones get polished out of existence before launch.
In 2021, we founded Scuffed Publishing as the publishing arm for our first original title, Our Last Hope, still in development.
Today we're self-directed, not chasing AAA scope, and focused on tight mechanical depth, distinctive art direction, and giving players the kind of choices that matter — the kind you remember the shape of weeks later.
Our first shipping title is AI Apocalypse, a cyberpunk roguelike deckbuilder launching into Early Access on May 19, 2026.
What We Build
- Deck-driven games — cards, choices, and emergent strategies
- Tactical combat — turn-based systems with readable depth
- Meta-progression — runs that matter individually and collectively
- PC-first with Steam Deck as a primary platform target
