Skytear Games

Skytear Games is an independent game studio and publisher creating strategic tabletop games and developing digital experiences set in its proprietary fantasy universe, Olan Taa. Established in 2019 in Modena, Italy, the team began as PvP Geeks before rebranding as Skytear Games in late 2021 and early 2022. Its corporate operations are now based in Malta under Skytear Games Limited.

The studio’s debut title, Skytear, is a competitive, card-driven miniatures game that draws inspiration from multiplayer online battle arena games. Its tabletop catalogue has since broadened into solo, cooperative, competitive and family-oriented play, with releases including Skytear Horde, Skytear Horde: Monoliths, Skytear Horde: Campaigns, Onward and Dicequest.

Games and publishing

Skytear Games designs and publishes original tabletop games, manages crowdfunding campaigns, and distributes products directly to players and through retail channels. Its work spans:

• Competitive and solo/co-operative tabletop strategy games
• Asymmetric card battlers and castle-defence mechanics
• MOBA-inspired miniatures and board-game design
• Community playtesting and game localisation
• Crowdfunding-led publishing through Kickstarter and Gamefound

The studio has also collaborated with Level 99 Games on Exceed Skytear, a crossover using the Exceed fighting-card system.

Expanding into digital games

Alongside tabletop publishing, Skytear Games is building digital adaptations and video-game projects rooted in the Olan Taa universe. The team has recruited for Godot Engine development, including front-end and gameplay implementation, as it extends its original game-design work into multi-platform entertainment.

Skytear Games operates with a compact core team and a distributed network of freelance artists, graphic designers and playtesters. This remote-first model supports an iterative approach to developing, testing and publishing games for an international community.
