01 / Studio
One small
studio.
Northern Stack is an independent studio making Blackmoot, an offline strategy game about building up a House and living with what happens while you're away. We've also just started on something gentler, called Puddleside.

Build your House. Shape the realm. Leave a name worth keeping.

Just announced / Early in development
Puddleside.
Puddleside is a tiny garden that lives in a corner of your desktop, looked after by a small keeper called Puddle. He'll do the watering, the weeding and the fishing. You choose what he builds next, bring him the odd gift, and watch the place slowly become yours.
It'll run on the real clock and the real weather — when it's raining outside your window, it'll be raining on Puddle too.
It's very early days: no screenshots, no date, nothing to download yet. We just didn't want to keep it to ourselves any longer.
04 / How we work
Small on
purpose.
We're a small studio in the North of England. We'd rather make fewer games and take the time to get the details right.
Blackmoot is furthest along. Puddleside is just getting started.
