Greensky Games

Greensky Games is an independent virtual reality game developer and publisher based in Montréal, Canada. Its games emphasize the physicality, spatial presence and immersion of VR, with a particular focus on fast movement, aerial combat and interactions designed around three-dimensional space. The studio develops and publishes experiences for platforms including Meta Quest, SteamVR and Pico XR.

The studio grew out of enterprise VR work at Sketchbox, expanding into consumer games with experiences built around movement and player interaction. Its portfolio spans arcade shooters, roguelike progression, time-manipulation puzzles, extraction gameplay, mystery escape rooms and creative sandbox play. Across these projects, Greensky combines VR software engineering, game design and publishing.

Movement-driven games

The studio established its profile with SWARM, released in April 2021. The arcade VR shooter combines mid-air gunplay with pendulum-like swinging, using Greensky’s proprietary Smooth Grappling System to support fluid traversal through its environments. Grappling and shooting form the central relationship between movement and combat.

SWARM 2 followed in 2024, extending the series with roguelike progression, expanded environments and updated movement mechanics. Together, the two games represent the studio’s focus on fast-paced VR action and physics-driven traversal.

A broader VR portfolio

Beyond the SWARM series, Greensky’s work includes Chronostrike, a time-manipulation puzzle-shooter, and Shadow Chambers, a single-player medieval mystery escape room using AI-generated content. Its publishing activities also include Anomaly, an extraction shooter developed in collaboration with Pentachromatic Games, and the acquisition and publishing of SculptrVR, a creative voxel sandbox.

This mix of internally developed games, collaborative projects and publishing reflects a business extending beyond a single franchise. The studio’s supported capabilities include multiplayer and cooperative VR engineering alongside single-player game development, with projects exploring both action-focused play and more open-ended creative experiences.
