The Not So Grim Games studio: a cozy, crooked purple haunted mansion with glowing windows, jack-o-lanterns on the steps, and a friendly ghost waving from the tower

Not So Grim Games

Adorably haunted games from a tiny indie studio.

A Not So Grim Kind of Spooky

We take dark, gothic, and spooky ideas and turn them into something cozy, whimsical, and lighthearted — Tim Burton, if he grew up on Nintendo.

Gothic, but Cozy

Dark and spooky themes, told with a warm heart instead of a scare.

Whimsical Worlds

Hand-crafted, playful art — think cute Halloween more than horror.

Made with Love

A tiny indie studio pouring way too much love into every little detail.

Our First Release

ZenRide

Drop in any song from your own library and ZenRide instantly builds a one-of-a-kind rhythm level around it. It's spooky-cute chaos on wheels — our very first game, made with a lot of heart (and a healthy dose of caffeine).

Follow the Chaos

We post way too much about ZenRide. Come watch us build our first game in public, mistakes and all.

“Upload ANY song and the game instantly builds a custom level out of the music! This is our very first indie game... roast us in the comments before Steam does.”
