Independent games crafted at elevation in the Colorado foothills
Where altitude meets attitude
Thin Air Studio is an independent game studio nestled in the Colorado foothills, where the air is thin and the ideas flow freely. We believe the best games come from passion, not pressure—crafted with care by developers who play what they make.
Our approach is simple: build games we'd want to play. No focus groups, no design-by-committee. Just honest, engaging experiences that respect players' time and intelligence.
From our mountain workshop, we're creating mobile games that blend classic arcade sensibilities with fresh ideas. Games that are easy to pick up, satisfying to master, and memorable long after you put them down.
Above sea level, below the noise
What we're building now
The Brick Breaker That Bites Back
Classic arcade nostalgia meets biodegradable enemies. A love letter to Game Boy's Alleyway wrapped in visceral, bio-mechanical horror. Featuring the RECALL system—yank the ball back through enemies for critical damage. Six grotesque bosses. Satisfying destruction. No BS monetization.
"We build games we'd want to play. Up here, there's nothing between us and the work—just clear air and clear thinking."
