About JUGL Studio

For the people ready to grow.

A small studio making comics, games, and wellness, made to help minds grow.

The name

From the tree that shaped the brain.

JUGL comes from Juglans, the walnut tree, whose fruit is shaped almost exactly like the human brain. We picked the name because that is the whole job: helping minds grow.

So we make comics that build character, games that sharpen thinking, and quiet things that calm a busy mind. Different shapes from the same root.

“Joy is the seed. Uplift is the trunk. Glow is the branches. Live is the fruit. JUGL is the tree.”

The three promises

What we will, and will not, do.

Everything we make is held to three promises.

  1. 01

    It will not harm.

    We won't make anything that exploits fear, shames a person, or nudges behaviour for our own gain. If we can't stand behind it, we don't ship it.

  2. 02

    It will leave people better.

    Better than before they found it, in some small and real way. Not just informed, not just entertained.

  3. 03

    It will be honest.

    No performance wellness, no hollow positivity. We'd rather give people what they need to feel than what they want to hear.

Stay close. We write only when something is ready.

One email when a new comic, game, or piece of wellness is out. No schedule, no marketing. Just the real things.
