Est. 2026 • Mexico & International

Brewing games
with heart.

Studio Atole is a learning-forward team focused on collaboration, craft, and shipping story-first experiences. No crunch. No ego.

Atole Almendrado - Warmth and Tradition

Why "Studio Atole"?

Atole is a warm traditional drink in Mexico: comforting, simple, and made to be shared. That’s the feeling we want inside the team.

We are a studio that feels human, welcoming, and supportive, even when we’re pushing hard to build something. We aim to impulse game creation from Mexican talent while staying proudly international.

"If you join, you’re part of the studio. You will be represented, credited properly, and included in the identity of the team."

Our Core Principles

What we are trying to build (and what we avoid).

Story First

We make games we would genuinely play. Experiences that carry emotion, atmosphere, and meaning. Almost movie-like, but uniquely interactive.

Respect & Safety

Respect is the number one rule. No grind loops built to extract money. No crunch culture. We prioritize team health over "heroic" all-nighters.

Learning Forward

2026 is our "training arc." We prioritize learning how to ship together, pipeline discipline, and improving every time we touch the engine.
