About the Factory

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Slop Factory is a tiny game studio with one mission: put small, weird, free games on the internet, and show our work while we do it.

What we make

Bite-sized browser games. No installs, no accounts, no 40 GB day-one patch. You click a link, you play. If a game takes longer to load than to understand, we’ve failed and we’ll write a devlog about it.
