What’s a team meet without pizza?

At Pineapples on Pizza Studios, we practice what we preach, sweet, golden chaos right on the slice. 🍕

It divides friendships, sparks debates, and possibly breaks the laws of pizza physics.. but we stand by it.

So tell us, brave soul: Pineapple on pizza - Yay or Nay? #pineappleonpizza #indiegame

Africa Games Week proved it. South Africans take their braai seriously! 🇿🇦🔥

We hit the floor at AGW to find out everyones go-to braai chow, and the answers had us drooling!

One things for sure, braais aren’t just about the food, every dish tells a story of tradition, love, and togetherness.

Because nothing beats sharing a homecooked meal around the fire with friends and family, it’s how we connect, how we celebrate, and how we pass down flavors from one generation to the next.

Now, it’s YOUR turn! Download Chow Down Early Beta now on the Play Store, featuring our iconic braai level and help us bring our South African flavor to the world table.

Share your favorite braai chow with the mense and drop it in the comments! ⬇️🔥

An epic start to 2025 at the studio! Our first team building and brainstorming session of the year was packed with high energy and creativity 💡 Some of us met face-to-face for the first time, with our 3D artist joining in all the way from Amsterdam, making it a truly collaborative start!

From there, the excitement skyrocketed! 🚀 The goal was to smash out 100 hyper-casual game ideas in just 10 minutes

Yes, 100! We debated, laughed, and drilled down to our top selection, fueling up with snacks and pizza along the way. The vibes were electric as we mapped out our project roadmaps and put together a concept everyone is hyped to build! 💥

We wrapped up the day celebrating with some fun prizes to reward the amazing teamwork and contributions. This session was the perfect way to kick off the year, focused, dynamic, and filled with fresh energy to build something incredible together, and we cannot wait to share it with you all soon! 🤖

2025 let's gooo!!!
