We are a small, stubborn studio exploring drowned cities, fading myths and slow-burn disaster stories. Built on Unreal Engine, AI-assisted tools and a lot of late-night coffee in Larnaca & Chengdu.
A quick snapshot of what Aqualen Studio is currently touching. Some are live prototypes, some are ghosts from older timelines (hi, Inkighter).
A small, juicy match-3-like with capybaras, water tiles and “tidal” board resets. Built in Unity as a sandbox for monetization, content pipelines and A/B testing.
A long-running 2D ink-brawler that went through too many iterations, remote teams and code rewrites. It taught us a lot about scope, pipelines, and when to kill your darlings.
Long-term IP: a half-sunk world in 2035+ where cities are just scaffolding on top of old floodlines. Slow exploration, salvage black boxes, and conversation with ghosts from previous timelines.
A tiny JS toy set in the same “Capy Crush” mood: pop glowing bubbles before the timer runs out. It’s not the real mobile build — just a playful warm-up living on the website.
This is a standalone JS toy, not a WebGL build. The actual Capy Crush mobile prototype lives in Unity with more serious economy & puzzle design.
Aqualen Studio is a small label attached to Joytoart Gaming Limited (Cyprus). It focuses on water-heavy IP, systems design and long-form worldbuilding instead of pure “feature shopping”.
Joytoart Gaming Limited is the parent company handling publishing, finance and legal. Aqualen Studio is the creative / experimental label under it, where prototypes and new IPs are born.
We like tight loops, weird systems, and characters who feel like people instead of quest dispensers. We’re slowly building a connected “floodline” universe across multiple games and mediums.
Based in Cyprus & Chengdu, we work async across timezones, using UE, Unity, AI tooling and a lot of Notion boards.
If you’re another solo dev, small studio, publisher, or just someone who fell down a rabbit hole and ended up here — feel free to reach out.
