Tombatossals Softworks LLC is an indie studio of five artisans in Princeton, Illinois. They make living-systems games — The Penumbra Directive, BLACK WIRE — and original retro operating systems. No managers, no publishers, no telemetry.
Tombatossals Softworks LLC is an independent studio founded in 2025 in Princeton, Illinois, by three artisans — a Spanish designer, an Argentine programmer and an American artist — joined in 2026 by an American musician and a Spanish developer and pixel artist: five artisans working with no managers and no hierarchy. The studio operates on two fronts: strategy and simulation games built on living systems (The Penumbra Directive, a political thriller set in an alternate-history Spain of 1992; BLACK WIRE, a surveillance noir genuinely cross-compiled for the Amiga 500 and verified under cycle-exact emulation; El CID, a brand-new .d64 text adventure for the Commodore 64 and C128), and a systems division writing original, legally-clean retro operating systems, from a handcrafted DOS to a synthwave Amiga desktop. All art, code and music are produced in-house. Zero analytics, zero tracking, zero borrowed licences.

You are the government of Spain, 1 January 1992, and the world it was built for is gone. Cabinet, press, army and a Parliament that can call a vote of no confidence. Seventy-nine living systems — and one of your twelve sources works for someone else.
Old-school professional football management with the ambition of Dinamic Multimedia's PC Fútbol. 42 clubs, 1,390 generated players, tactics and chalkboard, live 2D match sim, transfer market, finances and a youth academy.
The whole Cantar de Mio Cid across 32 PETSCII rooms, with a 43-verb Spanish parser. A brand-new text adventure for the Commodore 64 and native C128, proven winnable by a solver.
Chicago, 1988. You are not the agent: you are the brain in the surveillance van. A finite reel of tape, evidence and chain of custody. The scoreboard is not a score — it is an eight-count indictment. Amiga 500, free and open source.
The synthwave Workbench the A500 deserved.
A Mediterranean fortress for your 386.
The Windows 95 your 386 never got.
The 90s desktop. Zero Microsoft code.
A desktop the C128 never got. In BASIC.
