Weyrdworks in 2022
Hello, there!
It’s been awhile since our last post, but Weyrdworks is very much alive - and more so than ever!
Here’s the good news; We are still making games. Our latest launch was Unicorns on Unicycles which graced Steam, Apple App Store and Google Play Store. While it may look like a simple 1 versus 1 game, there were a number of new challenges we had to face in the long 1.5 years of developing UOU. To really sum the challenge up, the fact is that Weyrdworks is not the same as it was back in 2019.
So what’s different about Weyrdworks today? Well for starters it’s no longer just JT and Shawn. We’ve onboarded a fantastic new blend of developers and artists into the team. With that comes administration, training, guidance, mentorship and generally just building a better pipeline for creating solid games.

We’ve also been involved in building interactive experiences for some really cool partners. Like moths to a flame, we can’t resist dabbling with new tech whether it’s an AR/VR Leap Motion-controlled game or a simple web-based experience. Core to what makes Weyrdworks tick is that we’re always keen to learn new skills.
Our new team has a slew of cool ideas in the works that we’re excited to announce soon; This revamped website being one of them. One of the next few games is Monster Nest which we will talk more about in the coming days. If you want to join in on our shenanigans, do consider signing up to our newsletter or say hi in Discord.
