Dig through magical caves, crack open rocks, and uncover sparkling gems and crystals across seven colorful worlds — just watch out for the mischievous Rock Goblin who loves to swipe your shiniest finds. A gentle mining adventure with gemstone facts and simple counting woven in, made for little explorers.
Calm enough to unwind with. Deep enough to obsess over.
You are a living mycelium network with one goal: take over the world. Grow your colony across procedurally generated worlds, outcompete rival AI networks, survive wild random events, and spread through eight distinct biomes. Climb the leaderboards, unlock roguelite upgrades, and see how far your spores can reach.
Twelve minutes. One thumb. The worst dinner rush of your life.
You're a line cook on the last hour of the night shift when the dinner rush turns into something much worse. A pixel-art horde survival roguelike: auto-attack keeps swinging while you handle the movement, the build, and the split-second calls. Turn kitchen tools into an absurd arsenal, fight through four restaurants, and take down the org chart — one suit at a time. Or run the shift with a friend in two-cook online co-op.
Field software for working professionals — offline-first, private by design, and honestly priced.
Home-inspection reports, finished in the driveway.
A focused, offline-first report writer for professional home inspectors. Rate each item as you walk, drop photos into the right finding, and dictate what you see — on-device AI drafts polished narratives that you review and approve before they enter the report. One tap builds a branded PDF and HTML report, ready to hand over on the spot.
No servers, no accounts. Inspections, photos, and client details live on your iPhone and your own iCloud — Rafter's App Store privacy label is "Data Not Collected."
The report you hand over carries your branding and nothing else — no ads, no badges, no upsells in your deliverable.
Three full-featured inspections free, no credit card. Then $399.99 once for the first 100 inspectors — or $249.99/yr once the founder licenses are gone.
Scan anything in 3D — right on your iPhone.
Turn the world around you into 3D. Scan a small object, a person, a single room with an automatic floor plan, or an entire building room-by-room — all processed on your iPhone, nothing uploaded. Clean it up in a full built-in editor, then export to USDZ, GLB, OBJ, STL, and PLY, plus floor plans as PDF, PNG, SVG, and DXF. Full-body scans even export ready for Mixamo, Adobe's free online auto-rigger.
Big Ridge Studios is an independent software studio based in Tennessee, chasing one idea: that great software can be wholesome, powerful, and genuinely fun — simple to pick up yet impossible to put down. We build in two worlds: games for every kind of player, and professional field software for people whose workday depends on their tools.
From gentle adventures for the youngest players to field software professional home inspectors rely on — we don't box ourselves into one kind of project.
No dark patterns, ever. Our kids' titles carry zero ads, purchases, or data collection — and our bigger games respect your time and attention.
We answer to the people who use our software, not to shareholders. That freedom lets us take our time and get things right.
