A handful of misfits making games and mods

No budget, no managers, no investors. Just heart, bugs, and a few questionable ideas.

About

We're not a corporation

"We just sit down and make things. Sometimes it turns out great. Sometimes it's a mess."

Squeal Studio is a small team of people with an unhealthy love for video games. We don't chase funding, pitch at conferences, or build roadmaps in Notion.

It's always honest work. Current projects: Stardanie for Terraria, and our own horror game NeShumi — both at different stages of development.

Projects

What we're building

In development

Stardanie

The expansion Terraria deserves
Terraria Mod

A massive mod with new bosses, new ores, mechanics, and biomes.

  • Unique bosses with multi-phase fights
  • New ores and progression
  • Hundreds of weapons, armor, accessories
  • Custom biomes with their own ecosystems
  • Deep lore and new mechanics
Early development

NeShumi

An atmospheric horror game with a microphone
Original game

You're trapped in a crumbling asylum, stalked by a blind but extremely sharp-eared creature. It can hear you through the screen.

  • Procedurally generated locations
  • Non-linear playthroughs, all down to luck
  • Microphone input feeds the monster's hearing
  • Dark corridors, thick atmosphere
  • Randomized items and exits
Team

Your misfits

There aren't many of us. But everyone here puts their heart into it. Or whatever we have instead of one.

The ideas guy. Dreams up bosses at 3am, then sits at the keyboard all night to build them.

We make what we want to make. Stardanie because Terraria deserves more. NeShumi because no one else will make it. We're misfits, and we're proud of it.
