Flipline Studios

Flipline Studios at a Glance

Flipline Studios is an independent developer based in Cleveland, Ohio that has been active since 2006. The company consists of just two people, Matt Neff and Tony Solary, yet they have released a total of 40 games by 2025. Their output shows a clear shift over time. They released only two games during the 2000s. That number jumped significantly to 31 titles in the 2010s. The 2020s have seen six releases so far, including recent entries like Papa's Pizzeria Deluxe in late 2024 and Jacksmith: Weapons and Warriors in May 2025. The studio focuses heavily on simulator games with 27 titles in that genre. Strategy is their second major focus with 20 games. They also have a smaller presence in platforming, indie, and puzzle categories. Most of their work targets web browsers with 24 games listed there. They also support mobile devices with 13 iOS apps and 11 Android titles. PC releases are less common at just five games on the list. Quality ratings for Flipline Studios vary across their catalog. Their average IGDB score sits at 64.9 out of 100 based on 13 rated titles. The breakdown shows two great games, eight good ones, and three mixed reviews. There are no poor-rated titles in the dataset. Their highest scores belong to the Papa series remasters. Papa's Hot Doggeria HD and Papa's Pizzeria HD both hold perfect 90/100 ratings from 2017. Older entries like Jacksmith and Papa's Burgeria sit in the high 60s, while later mobile ports often fall into the lower end of the good range or mixed territory. Despite the small team size, the company maintains a large library of casual cooking games alongside action titles. They have won numerous awards and attract millions of daily players according to their own bio. While they claim to make unique and highly enjoyable games, the data shows a consistent pattern of releasing many similar simulation entries rather than diverse genres. Their ratings suggest that while they maintain a steady stream of content, not every release reaches the heights of their top-rated 2017 remasters. The company continues to update its catalog with new mobile versions and sequels well into the current decade.
