OUR MISSION

BareBones is a small independent game studio based in France. We believe small teams give everyone more room to contribute. We want to build a lasting independent studio where the people making the games have a meaningful say in their direction.

We’re drawn to gameplay ideas that still have untapped potential, and exploring new ways of merging different genres together. Our approach is to keep our projects focused around a few strong mechanics, giving them the attention and space they need to develop.
