[ID/01]  Independent Game Studio  //  San Diego, CA

We make low-poly/worlds for chaos.

BentCat Games is a three-human, one-cat indie studio crafting multiplayer open-world and action VR games — built on hand-tuned shaders, hand-built worlds, and a stubborn belief that small teams ship the best ideas.

[02] The Studio

Small team.
Big worlds.

We've spent six years in the indie scene because we like the shape of the work — fewer meetings, faster iteration, the freedom to be a little weird. We're primarily focused on multiplayer open-world and action VR experiences.

Our games are built around low-poly aesthetics not because it's trendy — but because it lets every triangle mean something. Hand-painted shaders, weird physics, dense systems that reward curious players.

We ship on PC, Quest, PSVR2 and console. We answer our own emails. The cat attends standups.
