Making games for a kinder world!

Our mission

The Sunfarer mission is to create playful experiences that revolve around sensitive real-world issues, which are not conventionally represented in video games. Our work is not only a form of artistic expression but also a call to players to reflect and take action. Through collaboration and community, we strive to bring out deeply personal stories from those who are the most unheard.

Core values

  • Wellbeing First

    At Sunfarer, our health always comes first before any project or deadline. To make good games, we must maintain a healthy mind and body. Success should not come at the cost of our wellbeing.

  • Befriending Failure

    Making games heavily involves failing. We acknowledge these failures not as a loss, but as a stepping stone to progress. Sunfarers are not afraid or ashamed of making mistakes. We support experimenting and reflecting on our failures to not only learn from them, but also to hone our craft.

  • Every Voice Matters

    All Sunfarers, no matter their position in the team, are encouraged to voice their ideas, thoughts and opinions, which will always be received with respect and curiosity.

  • Respect and Empathy

    Sunfarers come from different parts of the world, with each one of us having different values, work styles and ways of thinking. Everyone deserves to be seen as an equal and treated with respect in every situation. 

  • For the people, by the people

    Our work is centered around humanity and the world, and all our work - design, art, writing, code, music - will be created by people, not generated by LLMs and AI algorithms. Our goal is to learn and express ourselves, not to chase performance and efficiency.
