Troglobytes Games

Troglobytes Games is an independent video game developer and publisher based in Barcelona, Spain. Its creative team began collaborating in 2015, and the business was formally incorporated in 2018. The studio develops original games for PC and consoles while also publishing and porting work by other independent developers.

Its creative approach emphasizes unconventional gameplay mechanics, stylized visuals and narrative experiences. Its original projects span action roguelites, cyberpunk action and cooperative survival, combining distinctive settings with mechanics built around each game's central premise.

Original games

The studio developed HyperParasite, a twin-stick action roguelite set in an alternate 1980s dystopia. Players control an alien parasite that can hijack different host bodies, making possession and changing playable characters central to the action. Troglobytes also developed Blind Fate: Edo no Yami, a cyber-samurai action game published with 101XP.

For RailGods of Hysterra, the studio worked with publisher Digital Vortex Entertainment on an online cooperative survival action game set in a Lovecraftian wasteland. Its development portfolio also includes Porkanoid, identified in the research as an upcoming project.

Publishing and platform development

Alongside its own productions, Troglobytes supports third-party games through digital publishing and console adaptation. Its development capabilities cover game design, programming, 2D and 3D art, and animation. Its porting services extend across PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch platforms, supporting releases beyond a game's original platform.

Publishing collaborations include console editions of Bad Vices Games' Ravenous Devils, The Kindeman Remedy and While We Wait Here. Other projects include console publishing for Stupidi Pixel's Death Noodle Delivery and Steam publishing for TimeSeeker's Drillbound. These collaborations extend the studio's publishing work into cooking and hospital management, psychological horror and other independent game genres.

This combination of original development, publishing and porting gives Troglobytes an operating model that encompasses both creating its own games and bringing externally developed titles to additional platforms.
