We’re Ayelet Studio—a scrappy indie crew from Chennai hell-bent on building world-class games with bold gameplay, immersive stories, and a hearty dose of cultural pride.

Founded in 2022, we've been on a mission to bringing regional stories to a wider audience. No generic tropes. No surface-level storytelling. Just rich, rooted experiences built for a global stage.

Our upcoming title Unsung Empires: The Cholas II blends stealth, spectacle, and surul vaal-swinging combat and is coming to PC, XBox, and PS5 in 2026.

Craft Over Clout.

We believe the best games aren’t just played—they’re felt.

At Ayelet, we chase emotions, not algorithms. We craft moments that linger, worlds that matter, and stories that punch through the noise.

We draw from our roots–not as a limitation, but as our greatest asset. South Indian history, language, aesthetics, and rhythm breathe through everything we make. But we’re not here to make museum pieces. We’re here to redefine what local means.

How We Work

One Team. No Silos.

If it’s broken, we fix it together. No turf wars. No blame games. We build, break, and ship as one crew—united by purpose, not titles.

Ideas Over Ego.

Game-changing starts with idea-sharing. Everyone’s voice matters. We don’t just encourage innovation—we test, break, and rebuild until it works.

Own It Like You Built It.

We treat this studio like it’s ours–because it is. No shortcuts. No excuses. Just full ownership, high vibes, and 100% serious hustle.

Fast Moves. Big Plays.

Speed is our superpower. We stay scrappy, sharp, and focused—because momentum wins. Not everything’s a fire, but we move like it could be.
