A studio born from a parent's wish

DB Attic Studios is a small, independent game studio based in New Hampshire, focused on cozy, storyโ€‘driven games and handโ€‘crafted worlds.

A studio founded by Dr. Darlene Barker, built on systems thinking, technical craft, and a deep love of character-driven storytelling.

Build worlds that feel warm and welcoming, give players meaningful choices, and create experiences that respect your time and your imagination.

When we say "familyโ€‘friendly," we mean it in tone and values, not in putting our actual family on display. We intentionally keep our family's faces and personal details offline to protect their privacy, and we extend that same respect for safety and boundaries into how we design our games and community spaces.

Right now, we're hard at work on Stinky Snake 2, a 2D platformer set in a handโ€‘painted world with pixelโ€‘style characters, along with other projects that explore gentle challenge, exploration, and humor.
