Independent game studio

We make mobile games the careful way: fair progression, light builds, and promises sized so we can keep them

The studio

We build worlds worth returning to

Vinmara stands on one conviction: a mobile game can respect your time, your intelligence and your wallet, and still be impossible to put down

We are a small independent studio led by Maksym Kozlov. We design our own systems, draw our own worlds and run our own servers, so every promise we make is ours to keep. Small keeps us honest: each screen, each number and each word passes through hands that care.

The name carries mara, an old word for a vision that will not let you rest. Every game we release becomes a star in the V of our sign. The sky has room.

  • Independent and self funded
  • Our games run on our own servers
  • Building software since 2021

Our games

The first star

Ironclash

A mobile PvP RPG that revives the spirit of the old browser fight clubs. You raise a fighter, forge and mend your gear, pick your stance and trade blows with real people.

Fights land blow by blow in real time, the campaign is an endless road with a boss every tenth step, and the forge keeps your gear alive between battles.
