  4. Temper

A tower-building management sim. You place lobbies, offices, condos, hotels and shops across four connected faces of a skyscraper, wire them together with elevators and service corridors, then live with the consequences. Commuters queue at 8 am, garbage piles up, and a quarterly ledger tells you whether any of it made money.

01The processNotre méthode

How we forge

Blacksmiths and programmers have the same problem: the material fights back. So we work it the old way, in four heats, from white-hot to the blue-teal of a tempered edge. That last colour is the one in our logo.

  1. 00

    Heat

    Find the real problem. We prototype fast and rough while the idea is still soft enough to reshape.

  2. 01

    Hammer

    On this heat: CubedTower

    Shape it in small, deliberate strikes. Every blow is a commit you can see, test and take back.

  3. 10

    Quench

    On this heat: BudBud

    Cool it under pressure. Automated tests, real players and the edge cases we would rather find first.

  4. 11

    Temper

    Draw out the brittleness before it ships. Performance, polish and the boring fixes that make software last.

10The lodgeLa hutte

Built like
a beaver dam

The beaver is Canada's national animal and the most stubborn engineer in the country. It works with what is around it, builds things that hold back rivers, and comes back every night to fix whatever the current took. Even its teeth are reinforced with iron, which is why they are orange. So one swings the hammer in our logo.

  1. 01 Build to hold

    Beavers build where they hear running water, and go back to patch the exact spot that leaks.

    A dam that leaks isn't a dam. We would rather ship less that works than more that doesn't.

  2. 10 Chew through the hard parts

    A beaver's incisors never stop growing. The only way to keep them sharp is to keep chewing.

    Simulation engines, speech, computer vision: we pick problems with some bite to them.

  3. 11 Keep up the lodge

    Every autumn the beaver packs fresh mud onto the lodge before freeze-up.

    Shipping is the start. We keep patching, tuning and listening long after launch.
