About
One Dev. Too Many Ideas. Not Enough Sleep.
Metal Games Studio is a one-person indie forge — part artist, part designer, part developer. Based in Austin, TX, building games that blur the line between indie experimentation and professional craft.
From roguelites to tactical RPGs to AI-powered tools — if it's interesting, it's getting built. Every game starts with a question: what if? Every prototype is an answer being forged.
This isn't a studio with a mission statement and a ping pong table. It's one person with a forge, a GitHub account, and an unreasonable number of side projects.
