Scarlet String Studios is a one-person indie game company that I founded in 2018. I'm Stefan Bhagwandin, a game developer and writer. You might know me by my internet handle, "eternal".
The company's previous games include Monospaced Lovers (2024) and Sepia Tears (2013). You can find our full list of shipped products on our Steam developer page.
Personally, my goal is to craft games that blend anime-inspired stories with novel, subversive gameplay. I try to avoid derivative aesthetics and addictive, dopamine-driven game design. I want games to be a nuanced medium that people can continue to enjoy well into adulthood.
