HoruSphere Group

Games and software, one holding company

One engineering discipline, applied across two industries.

HoruSphere Interactive builds systems-driven simulation games. HoruSphere Systems builds software products. Different markets, same standard for what "done" means.

Operating model

Four rules that do not move.

  1. Build for our own operations first

    Tooling earns its place by being used on real production work before it is offered to anyone else.

  2. Invest where the engineering compounds

    Capital and attention go to software and game development, where one engineering discipline pays off across both.

  3. Share standards, not roadmaps

    Common engineering discipline, delivery practice and release rigour move between brands. Product decisions stay local.

  4. Hold for the long term

    Depth over launch spikes, in games and in software alike.

The companies

One engineering standard, across games and software.

What runs through the group is engineering discipline: deterministic builds, release rigour, and delivery practice that a shipping game and a shipping platform both depend on.

The group sets that standard and holds the long-term position, while each company owns its own market and its own product decisions.

Portfolio index

Five entries, all in development.

Three titles at HoruSphere Interactive, and two products at HoruSphere Systems: Horu Platform and Crateyard. Nothing below is described as finished.

HoruSphere Interactive

Three titles

Silicon Magnate
Technology company management tycoon. Design chips, build software, place workstations, hire staff, survive bad launches and outcompete rivals. The studio's primary commercial title.
Third title
A third project is in development. Not yet announced.
State of Affairs
Turn-based political strategy. Lead a nation through policy, factions, elections, economy and crisis. A public Steam page is live.

HoruSphere Systems

Two products

Horu Platform Early access
Build and release automation for game studios: Horu CLI, a portable Go binary and one horu.yaml profile, and Horu CI, native game CI built around the same engine.
Crateyard Early access
An OCI entitlement gateway. Lets any SaaS company decide exactly which container image versions each customer is allowed to pull — cloud-native, hosted by HoruSphere Systems or deployed inside the customer's own cloud.

Horu CLI and Horu CI are the current commercial focus for Horu Platform. Subscription software is the intended model for both products.

Group structure

HoruSphere Group is the holding structure for HoruSphere Interactive and HoruSphere Systems. The companies keep their own products, markets and execution paths, and share engineering standards rather than roadmaps.

We publish our companies as we build them, not after they launch. What's on this site is real work in progress, named plainly rather than dressed up as finished.
