The studio site
Mad Beans Game Studios is a small indie games studio in Norwich. Its home is madbeansgames.com. Version 2 of the site keeps the parts people remember. The Norwich sky, the windmill, the sunburst and the sunset footer all stayed. The skyline is the same one you see at the top of this site.
Then the sky came alive. The sun and moon follow the real time in Norwich. Rain, snow, fog and storms come from a live forecast for the city, which the server caches for 20 minutes.
- Light and dark mode, remembered between visits.
- Project pages with game details such as status, genre, platforms, engine and links.
- Pages for each member of the team.
- A hidden arcade with two mini games, Beanball and Breakbeans. It loads only when someone presses Play.
A site for each game
Each game has its own site, designed around the game itself.
Barrowfall
bf.madbeansgames.com is a static site for a dark fantasy horde-defence RPG. Scripts capture screenshots from the game, publish builds and keep a devlog up to date. Read the Barrowfall case study.
Star Civilizations
sc.madbeansgames.com previews a colony builder and its idle edition in plain HTML with one stylesheet and one small script. Read the Star Civilizations case study.
BoxManager
BoxManager is the longest running of the three. A free boxing manager game in the browser since 2016, with over 4,000 registered players, it now has its own home at boxingmanagergame.com. Read the BoxManager case study.
