About

The team

peasful and quiet


We are Annika, Valeria, and Vanessa, three passionate game developers based in Hamburg, Germany. We are on a mission to bring unique, heartfelt indie games to life. Currently in the founding phase of our studio Peas & Quiet Games, we combine our individual strengths and years of experience across key areas of game development. Each of us contributes deep expertise in our respective fields Writing/Producing, Technology, and Creative Direction, creating a well-rounded team that thrives on collaboration.


Beyond our professional skills, our long-standing friendship and history of working together foster an atmosphere of honesty, trust, and creativity. We don’t just complement each other technically—we also click on a personal level, making our teamwork stronger and our projects more meaningful. At Peas & Quiet, we believe great games are built on passion, partnership, and a little bit of playful chaos. Stay tuned for what’s coming up!
