We make the games we want to play.

OWD Games is a two-person indie studio, split between Germany and Finland. We develop and publish our own games — games we actually want to play ourselves.

Life of Dwarves

In development

Co-op first-person dwarf mining for 1–4 players. Four dwarves, one mine, one shared purse — dig for ore, haul treasure back in your arms, and decide when the light runs low: deeper, or back?

Sled Builders — a hand-welded sled racing down a snowy slope

Sled Builders

Playtest

A physics-based sled-building game: craft a sled from freely welded parts, then race it down freezing winter slopes against the clock — alone or with friends.

PC · Steam — playtest open for requests
About us

Two developers, one purse

We started OWD Games in July 2026 to build games for fun — the kind we want to play ourselves. Being developer and publisher in one keeps the loop short: we build, players tell us what holds and what breaks, and we fix it. Sneak peeks, playtest keys and honest answers all live in the same Discord.

Discord

Where development happens in the open: sneak peeks, bug reports, suggestions, and playtest keys through a dedicated channel once the playtest is ready.

Steam

Coming soon

The Life of Dwarves store page is in preparation. Wishlisting it on day one is the single most useful thing you can do for a two-person studio — Discord hears about it first.
