Fifty North Studios is an independent video game studio focused on building thoughtful, detail-driven games for players who value depth, honesty, and craftsmanship. We believe smaller scopes allow for stronger creative direction—and better games.
The studio was born from a simple idea: making the game that never existed, but should have. When no one else built it, its creator learned game development from the ground up and brought that vision to life. Shared online years later, the project resonated with players who were looking for something genuine and uncompromised.
That project became Snow Plow Project, the first release under Fifty North Studios. It reflects our approach to game development: hands-on, focused, and respectful of the player. We deliberately avoid industry shortcuts—no manipulative design, no predatory monetization, no pay-to-win systems or needless contracts. If a game is good, players will play it. It’s that simple.
