The studio
MonkeyMonk is an independent game development studio created by Stéphan Zych. The studio explores game systems, simulation, procedural worlds, multiplayer foundations and small playable experiments.
The goal is to build games with readable rules, meaningful interaction and worlds that feel alive through systems rather than scripted spectacle.
Current interests
Currently building
Early projects, prototypes and technical explorations currently shaping the studio.
A pixel-art real-time strategy experiment about small armies, living systems and emergent worlds.
Early prototype World SystemsExperiments around procedural terrain, simulation, maps, world generation and emergent interactions.
Research & prototyping Playable StudiesSmall prototypes used to test mechanics, interactions, UX ideas and technical constraints before they become larger projects.
OngoingField Notes
Experiments, systems, prototypes, technical decisions and lessons from building games.
Field Note 001
MonkeyMonk is a place to turn systems, experiments and game ideas into things that can actually be played.
The immediate goal is simple: finish small projects, publish them on itch.io, and document what is learned along the way.
