Introducing Caustic Studio

We're excited to introduce Caustic Studio — a browser-based game creation platform that brings pixel art, audio, level design, and collaboration into a single tab.

What is Caustic?

Caustic Studio is built for 2D game creators who want professional tools without the friction of managing multiple applications and export pipelines. Everything runs in your browser, connected to a live game engine, so you can see your changes in real-time.

What's included at launch

Pixel Art Editor

A full-featured sprite editor with layers, blend modes, onion skinning, and animation timeline. Edit sprites and see them update live in the running game — no export step required.

Audio Workspace

Create and arrange sound effects and music with an integrated audio editor. Preview how audio sounds within the actual game environment, with all spatial and environmental effects applied.

Level Editor

Design rooms, place tiles, and configure physics zones with a visual level editor that connects directly to the game engine. Test your levels instantly without rebuilding.

Real-time Collaboration

Work on the same project with your team simultaneously. Changes sync instantly across all connected editors, with presence indicators and conflict resolution built in.
