About the studio

Monkeyboy Studio is an independent software studio based in Utah. It makes its own apps and games and builds them start to finish: the rules, the code and the art.

The studio was founded by Aaron Woodbury as one home for everything he creates. Brain Brawl is the first product under the name, and more will follow it here.

This jungle is a fair example of how things get made. Every leaf and branch is drawn in code, and every route up the tree is tested by a simulated monkey before you ever see it.
