Springloaded

Springloaded at a Glance

Springloaded is a Singapore-based studio founded in 2012 by James Barnard. The company has been active from 2015 through 2026 and currently lists 13 titles on PlayPile. Their output shows a clear shift over time, with nine games released in the 2010s compared to just three in the 2020s. This decline in volume might suggest a slower pace of development or a focus on fewer projects recently. The studio targets a wide range of platforms, including PC and Nintendo Switch which each hold seven titles, while Android, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo 3DS, iOS, PlayStation 5, and Mac have between one and two releases each. Their catalog leans heavily into specific genres. Adventure leads with seven entries, followed by Arcade and Indie genres with six games each. They also explore Simulator, Role-playing, Strategy, Puzzle, and Platform categories, though their reach in Shooter and Music is minimal with only a single title in each. The bio claims they are renowned for innovation in management simulation, yet the data shows their highest-rated game is indeed a simulator called Let's Build a Zoo from 2021. This title holds a score of 70.1 out of 100, which falls into the good range. Their second best-rated game is Hiragana Pixel Party from 2016 with a score of 60, while Heart Beaten from 2015 sits at 45, placing it in the mixed category. The average IGDB rating across their three rated titles sits at 58.4 out of 100. This number reflects a portfolio that struggles to reach high acclaim, as there are no games with great ratings above 80. The studio has two good titles and one mixed title in the dataset. Recent activity includes the release of Space Lift Danger Panic! in 2019 and The Legend of Evil in 2018, but their most recent output appears to be very limited until a scheduled December 2026 release for Let's Build a Dungeon. While they have managed to publish titles on multiple major consoles, the overall reception suggests their work has not consistently met high critical standards.
