Who are we?
Our Story
The essence of Shiba Dog Studios was born in November 2020 off the back of the 49th Ludum Dare game jam. Working on a project by the name of ‘Let Me Out’ which, although not reaching completion at the time, inspired the founding members to continue working on games. Over the course of 2021, development began on a larger title named ‘Ekko’ – a roguelite tower climbing game. This project was eventually placed on hold due to scope and the studio put more focus on developing small, toy like games with a focus on finding depth in a singular premise.
Today, the studio prides itself in the supporting and creation of the imaginative dreams of the community, staying true to our roots of simplistic yet deep digital toys, both through the games we develop internally and the projects we work on with our clients and partners.

Tell Stories
Our mission
Our mission is simple; to empower people to embrace their imagination.
Everyone is born with the power to create, the desire to dream and tell stories – but the modern world and the struggles of life tend to push this to the background.
We aim to bring that back to the forefront, to help people find their creative spark and to bring their visions to life. We believe that everyone has a story to tell, and we want to help them tell it.
