New games with old souls.

Each one starts with a piece of computing history we loved, then goes somewhere new.

One Command Ahead

Small robot. Big brain energy.

A sci-fi programming puzzler. Arrange command blocks into a routine, press Run, and guide a very literal robot through the courses of Orbital Academy Seven and the corridors of the Terrapin. Somewhere along the way, an old terminal starts waking up.

Digital goods for creators

Our Etsy shop has the softer side of the studio: matching, animated stream packs built for 1920×1080 and ready to drop into OBS, Streamlabs or StreamElements. Every pack comes with a plain-English setup guide.

Opening soon on Etsy

Shop illustrations are created with help from AI image tools, then composed, animated, tested and packaged by us. No game footage, logos or licensed characters.

Newtro, as in new plus retro

We grew up dialing into BBS door games and watching a turtle draw squares on school computers. Those machines taught us that a few good instructions can take you a long way.

Newtro Studios is a small family studio carrying that feeling forward: games you can think your way through, worlds big enough to get lost in, and tools that help creators get on air.
