About the studio

One person. Worlds deep enough to run without you.

Iron Buffalo Studios is a one-person, veteran-owned game studio in Houston, Texas.

We build strategy games in Unity and Unreal for PC and phones: worlds deep enough to run without you, with nations, houses and colonies that chase their own ends. Then we hand you the reins. Every game here is designed, built, captured and supported by the same person who answers the support mail.

What the name means

The iron buffalo is the studio mark: a low-poly bison, cast in iron, lit by a single ember. It stands for the way the games are made: one piece at a time, heavy, built to last, and charging anyway.

How the games are made

Epochfall runs on Unreal Engine; Epochfall: Dynasties, Exodus Authority and Grim Designs are built in Unity; Fantasy AI is a web and phone app. Some art, models and cinematics come through AI-assisted tools, and we say so wherever it is shown. Everything shown as gameplay on these sites is a real capture from a real build.
