About the studio
OGStudio is an independent app and game development studio. We stay small because the alternative — layers of people between the brief and the build — is how projects quietly go wrong.
Storefronts we ship to: Microsoft Store, Mac App Store, and iOS
Between runnable builds, on every project
Typical first response to a new enquiry
Of source, assets, and credentials handed over to you
What we believe
These sound like marketing lines until a project goes sideways. Then they're the only things that matter.
If your scope doesn't fit your budget, or a port isn't worth building, you'll hear it in week one rather than month four. Bad news ages badly, and we'd rather lose a project at the quote stage than deliver something we knew was wrong.
Source, assets, store credentials, signing certificates — all yours, transferred at completion. Nothing is held back to make leaving us difficult. A retainer should continue because it's working, not because you're locked in.
A prototype that impresses in a meeting and never survives review isn't work, it's theatre. We optimise for the build that passes certification and runs on a four-year-old device, because that's the one your customers actually get.
No handoff from a sales team to a delivery team that inherits promises it can't keep. Whoever scopes your project writes its code, which is the simplest way to make sure the estimate means something.
The stack
Tools are chosen per project, not per habit — but this is where we're deepest.
Swift, SwiftUI, AppKit, UIKit, Metal, CloudKit. Mac App Store and iOS App Store release, notarisation, and entitlements.
C#, .NET, WinUI 3, WPF. Microsoft Store packaging, Partner Center submission, and Windows desktop distribution.
Unity for cross-platform games, Rust or C++ for shared cores where a single codebase genuinely pays for itself.
We take on a small number of projects at a time, which means we can say yes properly or say no early.
