Independent Game Development

Made by Gamers
to make games for Gamers.

TigerClaw Studios is building challenging, immersive game worlds where survival, atmosphere, and meaningful progression matter.

TigerClaw Studios

Built from the player side of the screen.

TigerClaw Studios is an independent video-game development studio. Our defining idea is simple: it's a development studio made by Gamers to make games for Gamers.

We focus on the things survival players notice when they spend dozens—or hundreds—of hours inside a world: challenge, immersion, atmosphere, systems that work together, and reasons to keep pushing forward after the early game is over.

In Development

Current Project

Virelands: The Long Night

An open-world survival-horror game in development, built around a world where power, darkness, infected threats, and the struggle to rebuild are tied together.

Survival HorrorOpen WorldExplorationRebuilding

Survive. Restore. Reclaim.

Restore damaged infrastructure, bring sections of the power grid back online, use UV defenses against infected, gather equipment and resources, recruit survivors, and turn dangerous ground into something worth fighting to keep.

01

Power Changes the World

Electricity is more than scenery. Restoring power is intended to change how spaces function, how they are defended, and how safely they can be reclaimed.

02

Darkness Has Teeth

UV-based defenses and dangerous infected make lighting a survival decision rather than a cosmetic one.

03

Progress Beyond the Starter Base

The experience is being designed around continuing goals—reclamation, recruitment, resource management, infrastructure, and exploration—rather than ending once the player has built a comfortable base.

04

A World Worth Exploring

The project emphasizes grounded environments, environmental atmosphere, distinctive threats, and systems that reward the player for learning the world.

Virelands: The Long Night is currently in development. Release date and pricing have not been announced.

Our Approach

Challenge without empty repetition.

Survival game enthusiasts and players who like a challenging environment are the audience we are building for.

Immersion First

Believable environments, grounded equipment, strong audiovisual presentation, and systems that feel like part of the world.

Systems With Consequences

Survival mechanics should interact with one another and create decisions—not exist simply because the genre expects another meter to manage.

Keep Giving the Player a Reason

One of the biggest dangers in a survival game is becoming repetitive or boring once the player has built up to a certain point. Our design direction is built with that problem in mind.

We make games as people who play them.
