About North Adapt

Built for the thumb

North Adapt LTD is an independent studio. We make apps and games only for iPhone, and we focus on getting the feel right.

What we believe

Touch first

We design every control for a finger on glass before anything else, so each app and game feels right under your thumb.

Every frame counts

We keep our apps and games smooth and light on battery, and we test on older iPhones as well as new ones.

Fair by design

No pay-to-win, no loot boxes, no energy timers. People should feel good about what they spent.

How an app or game gets made

Every North Adapt app and game goes through the same five stages.

  1. Prototype

    Two weeks, one question. Most ideas stop here, and that is the point.

  2. Playtest

    Real players on real devices, from day one. We watch hands, not heatmaps.

  3. Polish

    Frame times, haptics, battery drain. We tune for the oldest phone we support.

  4. Ship

    We ship free with fair purchases. Never energy timers.

  5. Support

    Seasons, patches and a community team that answers.
