Pwned and Operated Studios, LLC

Trying to turn nearly 4 decades of game playing experience into creating something new.

Pwned and Operated Studios is a tiny indie team (of 1) currently focused on retro-inspired games. Our debut title, The Princess and the Portals, is built exclusively for the Playdate. We make games that are fun, replay-able, and reward trying and failing repeatedly.

Featured Game: The Princess and the Portals

The princess has been kidnapped, and it is your job to save her as an intrepid wizard who apparently only knows one spell – how to make portals! Use your portal projecting prowess to solve puzzles and take out enemies as you work your way up the Spider Queen’s castle.

  • Built exclusively for Playdate and its crank.
  • Test your gaming mettle with precision platforming and aiming.
  • Conquer over 65 levels and 5 unique bosses.
  • Hone your skills as a wizard to climb the global leaderboards.
  • Unlock “Hard” Mode after beating the game for an even greater challenge.
