Waterford, Ireland · Est. 2014
An independent studio building original games and bespoke web experiences for clients across Ireland and beyond. Puzzle, platform and horror at heart — fully custom, end to end.
01 — The Studio
Shadow Games and Development began in 2014 as a creative practice for original games and quietly grew into a full web and software studio. We work with founders, fitness coaches, sports clubs, clinicians and creators across Ireland — building the things their businesses actually need, not the templates they were sold.
Our games lean toward atmosphere — puzzle, platform and horror — but our client work is whatever it needs to be: clean, fast, accessible and built to last. We're proudly small, which means you talk to the person making it.

Capabilities woven across builds:
05 — Process
A no-cost call to understand what you're building, who it's for, and what success looks like.
A written scope you can hold us to — fixed where it can be, transparent where it can't.
You see progress in stages. We adjust as we go. Nothing ships without your say.
We host, monitor and update. You focus on running your business — we keep the lights on.
06 — Contact
Tell us roughly what you're after — a site, an app, a game, hosting. We'll come back with a route forward.
