Small Team, Big Ideas
Our Story
Neon Wave Studios is an independent creative studio founded by Tom McEachan in Glasgow, Scotland. We believe games can be more than entertainment - they can be art, emotion, and connection. Guided by craft and sincerity, we create with intention and care, blending art and technology to tell bold stories, thoughtfully.
Our Mission
Our mission is to create games that move people - experiences built with integrity, intention, and care. The name Neon Wave reflects that belief: Neon for creativity and clarity, Wave for movement and evolution. Together, they capture our drive to craft ideas that resonate, inspire, and endure.
Our Philosophy
We believe creativity lives at the intersection of art and technology - where emotion meets craft, and play becomes meaning.
>Story
Story is at the heart of everything we make. It’s not just something to be told, but something to be felt - a connection between player and world. For us, storytelling lives in every detail: in silence and discovery, in choice and consequence. We craft narratives with intention, weaving meaning through atmosphere, character, and design to create experiences that stay with players long after they end.
>Art
Art is how we give emotion form. Every line, texture, and colour exists to serve the feeling at the centre of the experience. Our work is hand-crafted, deliberate, and human - embracing imperfection as part of authenticity. We treat visual design as storytelling in itself, using light, space, and movement to evoke mood and meaning. Through art, we aim to create worlds that feel alive, timeless, and deeply personal.
>Technology
Technology is where vision takes form. We build our own tools and systems to give our ideas room to grow, shaping gameplay and design around emotion and purpose. Every framework we create exists to serve the experience - to make each moment feel deliberate and alive. By working at the intersection of craft and code, we aim to push the medium forward while keeping creativity at its core.
>Gameplay
Gameplay is where everything comes together - the moment where story, art, and technology meet the player. We design systems that challenge and inspire, built from the tools we create ourselves. Every mechanic has intent, every interaction a meaning. Our goal is to craft experiences that feel alive and responsive, where emotion and design move hand in hand to create something truly unique.
