NLH STORIES

NLH STORIES is an independent video game and multidisciplinary creative production collective based in Barcelona, Spain. Its documented activity centred on Android games and commissioned digital work, bringing together programming, visual design, animation and audio production. The collective emerged around 2017–2018 and was publicly active principally between 2018 and 2020.

Its operating model combined students, junior developers and experienced freelance creative professionals. Recruitment materials described a collaborative team developing its own projects alongside commissions for third parties. This approach connected game development with a broader range of creative disciplines, allowing contributors to work across interactive entertainment, illustration, design and music.

Games and creative production

The studio developed and published Jump Hit, an Android arcade game promoted through an announcement trailer and a subsequent Halloween update. Its mobile catalogue also included Animal Heroes. Unity programming, gameplay development, game mechanics and troubleshooting formed part of its technical capabilities, supported by character design, 3D modelling, 2D animation and rigging.

Alongside its own games, NLH STORIES offered commissioned creative services. These included traditional and digital illustration, concept art, book covers, logos, brand design, apparel and textile graphics, and promotional advertising assets. Its work therefore extended beyond game production into publishing, commercial design and other digital media.

Audio was another component of the collective’s production offering, encompassing custom sound effects and original musical scoring for games and media. Project planning, milestone management and creative team assembly supported the coordination of these different disciplines.

The studio’s public materials presented both original entertainment projects and practical production assistance for clients, including Unity coding support and visual asset creation. Its documented portfolio reflects a small collaborative developer combining proprietary mobile releases with freelance creative commissions.
