Howling Monkey Martial Arts
& Game Development Club

We make games. We jam hard. We have absolutely no martial arts training whatsoever. Black belt in Unity, though.

Indie devs with the
discipline of a black belt

We're a scrappy game jam team who believe great games are built with focus, creativity, and zero actual combat experience.

The Howling Monkey Martial Arts and Game Development Club was founded on a simple principle: what if a game dev team had the aesthetic of a martial arts dojo, but none of the physical fitness requirements?

We compete in game jams, prototype weird ideas, and occasionally ship things. Our sensei has a copy of The Art of War someone found in a free pile, and we consult it regularly for level design advice.

Whether it's a 48-hour jam or a longer project, we bring the same focused, disciplined energy — then immediately get distracted by a new game idea.

Each one forged in the fires of a jam weekend, fuelled by energy drinks and poor decisions.
