ABOUT

SadJoy is a small indie studio focused on building games and finding a sustainable way to keep making them. We’ve been around since late 2024, and we’re still learning, refining, and growing. These wobbly sea legs are getting more and more acquainted with the ocean, the ocean of game development.

We currently have 4 projects in development, plus 1/3rd time set aside for new experiments and collaborations:

  • Fingerholers:A bankroll management game.
  • Monster Dating: A social dating / battling game.
  • Animal Crackers: An animal racing and feeding game.
  • ChickGammon: Backgammon with chickens.

2025 was about building pipelines and production habits. In 2026, the plan is to launch polished products while growing the studio.
