Game studio · Makers of the Janus Engine

Games with heart.
Worlds with teeth.

We’re Rad Games — the studio behind Puppies vs. Kittens and RiftBleed, and the team that builds the Janus Engine they run on. Two universes, nine games, one rule: fun comes first.

Powered by Janus Engine

We build the engine our games run on.

Every Rad Games title is made with Janus, the AI-native game engine from our own team. Our games push the engine forward, and the engine lets us build bigger worlds, faster. It isn’t only ours, either — anyone can make games with it.
