About us

King Island Studio

Independent game studio. Made slowly, in detail, and listening to the people who play.

King Island Studio is one person, working from Arganda del Rey, near Madrid. There is no marketing department deciding what gets said or when. The calls are mine and it shows in every detail, for better and for worse.

That means things take longer. It also means every one of them was thought about. If something does not sit right, write to hello@kingislandstudio.com and you get me, not a bot.

What we stand for

Built in the open

We write about how it is going, including what goes wrong. When something is half-finished we say so, instead of only showing the corner that came out nice.

The community steers

Where each game goes is decided by the people playing it. We actually listen, and we build in the open rather than behind closed doors.

Made with care, down to the detail

Detail over volume. We would rather take longer and have the care show in things almost nobody will look at closely.

There will be more games

Last Store on Earth is the project right now, not the identity of the studio. The name is an umbrella and more will follow.
