We build ideas.

Apps, games and AI development experiments.

AgentLab

An experiment in AI development infrastructure: planning, building and review roles, with local inference behind a gateway that makes routing and validation explicit.

Watercolor concept art of an Antarctic expedition crossing a frozen landscape toward monumental ancient ruins in the mountains.

At the Mountains of Madness

A game in active development. Its intended visual direction: watercolor, restrained psychological horror, and an Antarctic expedition dwarfed by monumental ancient ruins.
