A galaxy to build.
An independent studio for video games and professional creative software.
The Souk Galaxy is a two-person indie studio in greater Montreal, Canada. It makes video games and creative software, built on ten years inside the industry: Blizzard, Wizards of the Coast, Quantic Dream, MPC, Elite3D, 1047 Games.

Ten years in games as an environment, principal, and lead artist: Blizzard, Wizards of the Coast, Quantic Dream, MPC, Elite3D, 1047 Games. Najim designs and builds the studio's software and games end to end, from the first sketch to the build that ships.
Myriam Lafortune
Myriam runs everything around the work: the community, communications, and the books. The studio holds together because she does.
Indie on purpose.
Indie means every decision is the studio's to make and to answer for. The Souk Galaxy sells software you pay for once and keep: no subscriptions, no cloud. Najim believes the tools a pipeline depends on should be ownable by the people who use them, and that indie developers should be able to make a living building exactly that. That's the whole business model.
What's next.
