What it is
An indie game needs somewhere that isn't just a store page: a home for the studio itself, the games it's shipped, and the leaderboard that makes a free game worth coming back to.
What I built
A dark, purple-lit studio front with the pitch up top, a live stat readout (wizards, games forged, downloads), and a route through to the game itself — a Harry-Potter-flavored wizard duel you play right from the browse screen, backed by a real leaderboard. The web front end is Next.js and TypeScript with Supabase behind it for the leaderboard data; the game itself is built in C# with Windows Forms.
What I learned
A studio brand and a real, playable game shipped under it in the same build, from the marketing site down to the leaderboard that keeps players coming back.
