Studio Grutto
A studio for serious games & digital products
We turn complex subjects into experiences worth engaging with — serious games for researchers and educators, and digital products for startups who care about how their users feel.
What we do
Serious Games
We build games that make learning fun and accessible. We also create games for academia, where experiments designed to be shared all over the world are available through the web, and data gathering is made easy.
What we do
3D Visualizations
Using our custom C++ OpenGL rendering engine, we can build 3D-heavy programs for the web using Emscripten to create WebAssembly builds, so that it runs straight in your browser.
Serious Game
Before You Think
We redesigned the classic Implicit Association Test as a drag-and-drop web game for researchers studying unconscious bias around pregnancy and careers. Participants sort words and images into archives as fast as they can — earning points for correct answers, losing them for mistakes. The gamified format keeps engagement high while preserving the scientific rigour the IAT is known for.
Game
Complot
Complot is a detective/mystery game set in Amsterdam. Players observe citizens moving through a procedurally-timed day, scrub through time with playback controls, collect evidence, and make an arrest.
Open Source
Timeless engine
Timeless is an open source game engine, written in C++, which also exports to WebAssembly. It can be used to build games that run right in the browser, making it a good choice for projects that require them to be shared between lots of people quickly, and without hassle.
