Art-forward
Looks matter. We chase atmosphere, personality, and craft you can feel in the first screenshot.
The studio
Painted Thorn is a small indie studio with tattoo-shop energy: bold visuals, honest vibes, and games that feel handmade. We’re edgy and fun-loving — art-forward without taking ourselves too seriously.
Our games
We’re building at least one title right now. See the full list on the Games page.
