Hidden Horses was founded by veteran developers following the 2026 industry layoffs. We think that we still have much more to offer, and that great things can come from great teams that have great history together. As the games industry shifts substantially, we still believe there is a market for the types of old-school hand crafted games we are used to delivering. 


The company was created as a developer run and owned studio. This allows us to pursue fun and creativity in our games, unencumbered by short-term thinking or chasing market trends. As a group of developers who've dedicated their careers to making games, we believe this structure allows us to create the kind of company that values long-term health over short-term growth, longevity over quarterly returns, and innovative gameplay over shady monetization.

We run our business democratically to sustain project buy-in from the team as well as being able to take advantage of the entire team's expertise when approaching any major business decision. We do this not only because we think it is fair, but because we think it is a better way to run a business.
