Independent studio
Bandersnatch Software makes arcade-style games you can play right in your browser, apps for iPhone and iPad, and software for businesses that need something built well.
Games
Our games take their cues from the arcade cabinets and consoles of the '90s, and run in any modern browser with nothing to install. Play them free at the Bandersnatch arcade.
Demolition sim
Place the charges, fire them, and bring the structure down inside the drop zone without touching the houses next door. Nineteen targets, and every piece is physical.
Rail shooter
A PS1-style rail shooter. Fly one of four strike craft down a lane that never stops moving, while your wingman ECHO-7 talks you through it over the radio.
Arcade racer
A 1993-style arcade racer with chunky polygons, a countdown clock and long drifts. Beat the clock through the checkpoints, then chase your own ghost.
Off-road arcade racer
Monster-truck tires on a classic Bug. Run the turbo to the edge of overheating, stick the landings off the jumps, and spend your nitro to reach the flag first.
RC boat racer
Radio-controlled boats around a park lake, with ramps, a full loop and water-jet tubes, plus a battle mode with water mines and heat-seeking torpedoes.
In development
Apps
Our apps are small and finished: one idea, done properly, with nothing in the way of enjoying it.
Pet sim · iPhone and iPad
Raise a capybara from a baby in a garden of her own. Feed her oranges and limes, give her baths, play with her toys and dress her up in hats. There's no way to fail and no clock to beat.
Client work
We also build for other businesses. You get the same people and the same standards that go into our own games and apps.
Sites people sign in to, with accounts, profiles, leaderboards, saved progress and an admin dashboard behind them. Our own arcade runs this way.
Browser games, 3D product viewers and playable promos built with three.js, and tuned to run smoothly on phones.
Apps that feel at home on Apple's devices, from the first sketch to the version people download.
Internal tools, customer portals and the connections between the systems you already use.
The studio
Bandersnatch Software is an independent studio in the United States. We make the kind of games we grew up on: arcade racers that live and die by the countdown clock, Genesis-style box art, 16-bit platformers and physics you can feel.
We build them with today's tools so they run anywhere a browser does, and take the best of them to Steam as full games. Every one of them opens on the dragon.
The same habits carry into our apps and client work: small teams, working builds early, and nothing shipped until it plays well on a phone.
