Clear in three seconds
One-finger controls and short sessions. If a game needs instructions before you can start, we redesign it.
The studio
A small studio with software craft
Lopand Game Studio is the video game division of Lopand Solutions, a software development agency based in Tlaquepaque, Jalisco, Mexico. We bring to every game the same discipline we use to build apps: automated testing, careful releases and respect for the people who use what we make.

What matters to us
Three principles for every game
Respect for players
No interrupting ads, no misleading purchases and no collecting more data than needed. Our legal notices explain clearly what each game does.
Our own art and audio
The art and design are by Romina López, and the sound effects and music are made in the studio: no third-party assets and no questionable licenses.
How we work
From an idea to your phone
We document every stage of Rail Critters, Lumbre, la última luz, El Aprendiz de Almar, La Botica de Almar and Quimeralia: Crónicas de Almar in our devlog (in Spanish), mistakes included.
-
1
An idea in one sentence
If it can’t be explained in one sentence, it isn’t a game yet. “Run between trains with your gang” is.
-
2
Playable in days
A prototype you can try on a phone before polishing anything: the fun is found by playing.
-
3
Thoroughly tested
Automated tests on every change and play sessions on real phones. If a game stutters, it doesn’t ship.
-
4
Released with care
An honest store listing, clear legal notices and an inbox that actually gets answered.
The team
Who makes the games
A small team that covers the whole cycle: design, art, development, testing and outreach. Each member appears as a Rail Critters character, drawn in the same pixel art as the game.

Campaigns and launches
A short game to introduce a product or a season, on the web or on mobile.
Events and activations
Experiences for screens and tablets at booths: one-minute sessions with a leaderboard.

A mini-game for your loyalty program or to bring your users back every day.
