About RecursionSplash

Simple ideas. Games with staying power.

RecursionSplash is an independent game studio making free PC games that are easy to pick up and rewarding to stick with.

We started in 2024 with Pixel Flip, a card-matching game built around quick rounds and a growing pixel-art collection. In 2026 we released Community Button, a worldwide idle game where every player pushes the same total higher.

They're different games, but they come from the same approach: start with one clear idea, make every action feel useful, and add enough depth to keep the game interesting after the first session.

We run the online services behind Community Button ourselves, so support, updates and technical decisions stay with the people making the game.

How we work

What matters when we make a game

These choices shape both games and how we support them after release.

  • One clear idea

    A game should make sense before it asks for your time. We start with a mechanic that is easy to understand, then build outward from it.

  • Depth without clutter

    We add choices, goals and progression when they make the core game better, not just to fill another menu.

  • Short sessions still count

    Five minutes should move you forward. Longer sessions should give you more to discover, not more chores to clear.

  • Clear about the deal

    Both games are free on Steam, with optional extras if you want them.

  • Updates you can follow

    Patch notes say what changed and why. If something breaks, we say so and fix it.

  • Close to the work

    We make, publish and run our games ourselves — the same people answer support and fix what breaks.
