SEVENTHIRTYGAMES
An independent studio with a few screws loose — on purpose. We build game worlds you fall into and don't quite climb back out of. 730 is the code for off the hinges: unhinged, not all there, past the point of polite. We read it as a build spec.
Underworld
Savages
Build a crew, run the streets, climb the family, and find out exactly who you are when nobody's watching. No cutscenes, no hand-holding — just a living criminal underworld written one decision at a time. The save state is permanent. Mercy is not included.
Seven Thirty Games is an independent studio. Small on purpose, fast by necessity, and a little off the hinges by design. We build game worlds — living, text-driven places where the choices stick and nobody's coming to save you.
We started in the underworld because that's where the stakes run highest and the masks come off fastest. But the studio isn't a genre, it's a temperament. Whatever we build next will share the same pulse: real consequence, no filler, worlds you have to fight your way back out of.
One studio. No committee. No off switch.
Consequence is the feature.
Every world we build remembers what you did in it. No undo, no convenient reset — the weight is the whole point.
Whatever the story needs.
Text, 2D, or a full Unreal build — we pick the medium that makes the world land hardest. The tech serves the game, never the reverse.
The subject ships.
Small studio, big nerve. Builds the games most people only pitch. Allegedly one person — definitely relentless.
Committed.
Both kinds.
The kind they lock you up for, and the kind that ships at 3am with the straps still on. Subject 730 is both — bound, screaming, and completely unbothered. We're not looking to be released.

We're going Unreal
The next thing crawling out of the padded room is our first Unreal project. We're keeping the consequence-heavy DNA and giving it a body — bigger world, sharper teeth, same bad intentions. Early scope, first screenshots, and why we're not abandoning text to do it.
Read →Notes from a living underworld
A text world is only alive if it keeps moving when you log off. Here's how the economy, the grudges, and the body count keep ticking with nobody watching — and the design rule that keeps it from becoming a spreadsheet.
Read →Why consequence is the whole game
Most games let you reload until the world agrees with you. We don't. This is the argument for the moment you realize there's no undo — and why the weight of a choice matters more to us than the win.
Read →730: where the name came from
A code, a cuckoo clock, and a door that came off its hinges. The short version of how a diagnosis turned into a studio — and why we stamped ourselves unfit on purpose.
Read →Press, collabs, publishers, playtesters, complaints, threats, fan mail. We read all of it. We answer most of it. Pick a channel and put it on the record.
