Pixel Federation

Pixel Federation is an independent video game developer and publisher founded in Bratislava, Slovakia, in 2007. It creates free-to-play games for mobile devices and web browsers, with a particular focus on transport simulations, resource management, tycoon games, and story-driven puzzle adventures. Its development presence spans Slovakia and the Czech Republic.

The studio's early work included experiments on Nintendo DSi and iOS before it found an audience through Facebook games. The launch of TrainStation in 2010 marked an early breakthrough, followed by the fantasy strategy game Emporea. In 2012, it released Diggy's Adventure, which became a long-running part of its portfolio. These releases helped establish the company's combination of simulation, exploration, and ongoing game development.

Games and development

Pixel Federation subsequently expanded from browser and social gaming into iOS and Android releases. Its transport and management portfolio includes Seaport, TrainStation 2, and Port City: Ship Tycoon. Alongside these titles, Puzzle Adventure develops the studio's interest in story-led exploration and puzzles, while Candy Inc. applies its management-game approach to factory simulation.

More recent releases include TrainStation 3 in 2025 and Highway Heroes in 2026, extending its railway and logistics themes. The broader catalogue also includes strategy, idle role-playing, PC, and virtual reality projects.

The company handles game design, programming, art production, publishing, and ongoing live operations. Its operating approach emphasizes long-term support, community-driven content development, and communication with players. Cross-platform progression connects supported games across mobile devices and the company's web portal.

Pixel Federation primarily develops and publishes its own games, while also undertaking selective third-party publishing partnerships. Community support, in-game events, and ecosystem moderation form part of its continuing work around released titles.
