About
Piron Games is a one-man operation specializing in HTML5 game development and features 25+ years of professional game development experience.
Piron is a Romanian word for spike/large nail. It perfectly embodies the spirit we carried through-out the game development: sharp and tough. As nails.
The group formed in Romania in 1991 as a hobbyist adventure and released several remakes and original titles.
In 1998, the group grew and began working on an ambitious real-time tactics title called Pure Power. After releasing a beta version but failing to secure funding, the group split in 2001.
Piron Games reformed as a one-man operation, and continued developing open-source projects, like Pure Power Tactical Engine (strategy/tactics engine writen in C++) and Lethal Metal, a platformer inspired by Blizzard’s Black Thorne, written in J2ME for mobile devices.
The indie game development activities were resumed between 2008-2012, focusing into the Flash casual games market. Original games like Orbital Decay, Born of Fire TD, Loose Cannon Physics and many more were developed, which scored more than 25 milion game-plays world-wide. Orbital Decay was also nominated for the JayIsGames’ 2009 Shooter Game of the Year.
After a 6 years hiatus, indie game development was once again resumed in 2018, focusing into casual/hyper-casual browser (HTML5) games market.
Since 2022, Piron Games is on hiatus again, but minor fixes and updates are carried out occasionaly for the released games and for the site.
All games developed by Piron Games are available for non-exclusive, site-locked licensing. Please direct your enquiries or simply say hello to:
