About Newp Games

Who's behind it?

Just me, Nathan Partch. I design, code, draw, test and support every game myself, from the lock puzzles in Locks & Loot to the chiptune music in Brickbit and the 3D robots in Robo Stand. When you email help@newpgames.com, I'm the one who reads it.

What kind of games do I make?

Ones you can figure out in a few seconds and still want to come back to: short runs, clear goals, and the feeling that you got a bit further than last time. I build for phones first, but everything runs in a normal browser, so there's nothing to install just to try one.

Locks & LootA puzzle heist: crack locks room by room, grab the loot and get out before time runs out.BrickbitA pixel block puzzle where combos are the score and the music builds with every chain.Robo StandThe machines took the cities. Hold the last walled block, shoot down robot hordes and take the city back.

How I run things

• The games are free. If something is for sale, it's optional, and you never need it to win.
• No energy bars. You can always play. I'm not going to stop you because a meter ran out.
• No forced ads. The browser games have no ads at all. If an app has one, it's an optional ad you tap for a reward.
• No accounts. I don't ask for your name or email. The privacy page spells out exactly what each game stores.
• Feedback counts. A lot of what's in the games came from player emails.

Why a newt?

I just like newts. The orange one sitting on the logo is the Newp Games mascot, and you'll see that orange all over the site.
