Feel Free Games

Feel Free Games is an independent video game development and publishing studio based in Sassenheim, Netherlands. Founded in 2021 by former architectural software engineers and 3D industry veterans, it creates original games with a focus on life simulation, farming, exploration and online cooperative play. Its development team works primarily as a globally distributed remote workforce.

The studio’s debut title, Luma Island, combines a cozy island-life setting with adventure and farming simulation systems. Players can explore, develop their homesteads, pursue professions and solve environmental puzzles, either alone or through drop-in/drop-out online cooperative play for up to four players. The game removes stamina bars and restrictive inventory limits, while its Cozy, Adventure and Hero difficulty settings offer different ways to approach the experience.

First announced in February 2024, Luma Island appeared with a playable demo during Steam Next Fest that October. It launched for PC through Steam on November 20, 2024, with Steam Deck support. By September 2026, the studio reported that the game had reached more than 800,000 players worldwide on PC.

Development and ongoing support

Feel Free Games combines game design and programming with 3D art, concept art, animation and audio production. Its work encompasses the development and self-publishing of its own games, followed by live operations and content updates.

The studio continued expanding Luma Island after release through free content updates. The Pirates expansion, released in June 2025, introduced Pirate Cove, additional biomes, specialized professions and new magical companion creatures, extending the game’s exploration and progression systems.

As of October 31, 2026, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions had been announced for December 2, 2026. Those editions were planned to feature cross-platform cooperative multiplayer, extending the game beyond its original PC release.
