About
Cinder Ridge is being developed by Understory Games.
Understory Games is an independent games studio based in Southern California. Started by Nick Crockett and Julia Wang in 2022, the studio was founded to support the development of Cinder Ridge.
Our goal is to make fun and meaningful games which:
are rooted in place, in communal knowledge, and suggest continuities between the past, present, and future;
balance research with a commitment to the language, stories, and practices of everyday people;
embrace fun, fantasy, pleasure, and beauty as ends in themselves.
