The studio

Built to
go off.

Short Fuse Studios is a small, independent game studio. We make the kind of games we grew up loving: easy to start, impossible to master, and over just before you want them to be — so you hit restart.

No bloat, no endless grind. Just tight design, punchy feel and a lot of things blowing up.

  • 01

    Instant fun

    Seconds from launch to playing. If it needs a tutorial video, we've done it wrong.

  • 02

    Feel first

    Every jump, hit and boom is tuned until it feels right in your hands — then tuned some more.

  • 03

    Hard to put down

    Short loops, high stakes and a constant pull to beat your last run.

Get in touch

Light the fuse.
