Netspeak

Netspeak Games is a remote-first games studio headquartered in London that develops social, casual games for mobile and PC. The studio describes its focus as "wholesome" social titles and states that it was founded on the premise that good games come from well-supported teams, an approach it has also framed publicly as a zero-crunch, culture-first studio model with remote or work-from-anywhere arrangements, unlimited holiday, enhanced parental and secondary-carer pay, and independent learning days.

The studio's first released title, Sunshine Days, was a cross-platform, free-to-play multiplayer game built in Unreal Engine 5.4 for iOS, Android and PC, positioned by the company as a blend of Animal Crossing and The Sims. It reached a peak of 20,000 daily active users, was updated weekly over five years, and was discontinued in 2024. Netspeak subsequently worked on Town Builder, a social farming and dress-up hybrid on Unreal Engine 5.4 for iOS and Android that added a stronger in-game economy, and Haunted Heights, an Android title built in Unity by a team of four over four months and inspired by Tiny Tower; both were discontinued. The studio's current work-in-progress project is Pipkin, a Unity-based game combining science, exploration and Montessori-style child-driven play, described as being made for the team's own children and played by friends' families.
