Creepy Jar

Creepy Jar is an independent Polish video game developer and publisher based in Warsaw. Established in 2016 by experienced game developers, the studio creates proprietary games in the premium indie sector, with a focus on survival simulation, exploration and base building. Its work combines complex gameplay systems with atmospheric environments, while self-publishing supports its approach to financial and creative independence.

The studio’s debut game, Green Hell, places players in an open-world Amazonian rainforest survival simulation. It first launched through Steam Early Access in 2018 and reached its full PC release in 2019. PlayStation 4 and Xbox One editions followed in 2021, with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions arriving in 2024. The game also reached Nintendo Switch and VR through external porting partnerships. The supplied research reports lifetime global sales exceeding six million units.

Its second original property, StarRupture, expands the studio’s interests into a science-fiction setting. Originally announced under the development codename Project Chimera, the game combines first-person exploration, automated base construction, survival systems and combat against planetary threats. It entered PC Early Access in January 2026, building on the studio’s experience with interconnected survival mechanics while introducing a different environment and production focus.

Creepy Jar describes an approach centered on community-led feature iteration, detailed simulation and sustained support after launch. Regular free content updates extend the life of its games and provide opportunities to develop their systems over time. This operating model favors long-term engagement with existing players rather than rapid release cycles.

The company concentrates its core engineering, design, art and administrative work within its Warsaw studio. Its business centers on developing and publishing its own intellectual property, rather than providing third-party contract development or outsourcing services. External specialists support selected platform adaptations, allowing its original games to reach additional audiences.
