About
One person,
building in the open.
Workshop is a one-person studio. There's no team, no investors, no parent company. Just a single developer writing code, shaping worlds, and shipping them directly to the browser.
The studio started with a simple question: what would it look like to build games the way a craftsperson builds furniture — slowly, by hand, with care visible in every joint? Most of the industry has optimized for scale and engagement metrics. This is the opposite bet.
The first release is a 3D world game I've been quietly working on for months, restoring and reimagining a concept from a decade ago that nobody picked up. Small experiments will ship alongside it — tools, toys, weird ideas that don't fit anywhere else.
Three principles
Hand-built, not templated
Every game mechanic, asset, and line of code is written with intent. No asset flips, no generated filler. If a piece of content exists, it exists because someone chose to put it there.
Respect the player
No manipulative monetization, no dark patterns, no engagement-farming mechanics. Games should earn their time, not extract it.
The browser is enough
A link beats an installer. WebGL and WebGPU are powerful enough for serious work, and zero-friction access matters more than the absolute cutting edge.
What's next
The flagship 3D game ships when it's ready — not before. Dev log entries will appear as work progresses. If you want to follow along, the dev log is the place. No newsletter, no Discord, no notifications to manage. Just bookmark the page and check back.
