Who is behind SFBGames?

Updated

SFBGames is an indie games studio made up of brothers Tom and Adam Vian, based in London, England. They started making Flash games together in 2002 under the name The Super Flash Bros., and have since gone on to make games for mobile, consoles, and desktop.

The team

SFBGames is a two-person studio: brothers Tom and Adam Vian. The itch.io profile lists the studio as "made up of brothers Tom and Adam Vian," which means the creative and development work behind the games comes from this sibling partnership rather than a larger team.

Where they are based

The studio is based in London, England.

How they started

SFBGames began in 2002, when the brothers made Flash games together as The Super Flash Bros. That early Flash-era work is the origin point of the studio; the current name, SFBGames, is a shortened form of that original "Super Flash Bros." identity.

What they make now

Since the Flash days, SFBGames has expanded beyond browser games to develop for mobile, consoles, and desktop. Their catalog includes:

  • Snipperclips — made for Nintendo Switch
  • Tangle Tower
  • Haunt the House
  • Detective Grimoire
  • Crow Country
