We’ve had a lot going on here at Noodlecake! First of all, we hope that everyone is staying safe and healthy. During this unprecedented time, one of the ways that we’ve all been able to keep in touch and connect with each other is video games. We are so fortunate to be able to bring engaging and fun interactive experiences to our players, now and in the future.
The way in which we as people are collaborating has definitely changed, but as a company that has always been part of an international community, we’ve been able to pull through to release a lot of fantastic titles with equally fantastic developers. We really want to thank our collaborators from across the globe who have worked with us over the years, as well as of course our players, who have stuck with us through thick and thin. You are the foundation of what we do here at Noodlecake, and we wouldn’t be here today without you.
Without further ado, here is what’s new at Noodlecake!

You’ll get all the gear you need for the job, but it’s up to you to set up your cameras in the most optimal squirrel-viewing positions, pressing “record” and then reviewing the footage you’ve just captured.

-IGN
“Its main story is a well told one with a satisfying conclusion without being overly ambitious, and it’s brought to life through bold, striking art design and a great sense of creepy but not horrific atmosphere.”
This narrative surveillance adventure with a striking visual style was made by Joon, Pol, Muuutsch, Char & Torfi, and published by us at Noodlecake, with support from Plastic Fern Studios and Popagenda!
NUTS is available on Apple Arcade, Steam, Nintendo Switch, itch.io, and Humble Bundle!
