Field notes
The studio describes its approach through three ideas: “Homely,” “Curious,” and “Small on purpose,” and says it would rather be loved by a handful than shrugged at by millions. The homepage also links to a launch note and trailer, and gives a contact email for questions, bugs, or player feedback. Its game listing pairs “Free, with no ads” pricing with a “Pay what you like” licence.
