Studio Noori

Studio Noori is an independent Indian game development studio creating original PC and console titles from Hyderabad. Its work spans atmospheric horror, fast-paced action, narrative puzzle games and interactive-comic formats, with a focus on proprietary intellectual property rather than external work-for-hire or outsourcing.

The studio emerged from collaborative game-jam projects and has grown into a self-funded, self-publishing team developing commercial releases for global audiences. Its development capabilities include game programming, technical art, pixel art, Unity development, custom HLSL shaders and visual effects.

Original games

• Farsight — A first-person liminal psychological-horror adventure in development. The game draws on the uncanny image of a solitary house on a hill seen through an optometrist’s autorefractor machine. Its reveal has been featured through IGN and the India Games Showcase on The Game Awards official channel.
• Shotgun-Tact — A 2D top-down alien shooter built around time-slowing action. The project won the WTF Game Jam 2024 and the Student Game of the Year award at the IGDC Awards 2024.
• Where Did My Hair Go? — A narrative-focused interactive comic and puzzle game about the emotional experience of hair loss. It was nominated for Upcoming Game of the Year at the IGDC Awards 2024.

Creative focus

Studio Noori develops games with environmental storytelling and distinct visual moods, ranging from liminal horror to stylised action. Its projects are designed as original, authored experiences for PC storefronts including Steam and GOG, as well as console audiences.

The team’s early recognition came through experimental jam work before it expanded around Farsight, its debut commercial title. Through this progression, Studio Noori represents a growing segment of India’s game-development landscape centred on creating and publishing original games from within the country.
