VIDEO GAME PROJECTS
We’re Team Nava Games, a purpose-driven indie studio from Leipzig, Germany, creating narrative video games that combine entertainment with sustainable impact. Our games blend emotional storytelling, innovative game design, and scientific insights to inspire players, foster curiosity, and encourage a deeper appreciation for nature. 🌍
Update 07/2026: Meet us at gamescom 2026! Experience VIVID at the Saxon Joint Booth “Saxony” in Hall 4.1 and the Indies United Castle in Hall 10.2. A heartfelt thank you to Mitteldeutsche Medienförderung GmbH (MDM), the City of Leipzig, and Saxony Trade & Invest Corp. for making our participation possible. 💚
We’re currently looking for the right publishing partner and investors to help bring VIVID to players around the world. Let’s connect at gamescom in Cologne or reach out through our contact form. 🚀
VIVID
Experience nature from a completely new perspective. Be a Plant.
VIVID invites you to experience the world through the perspective of plants.
Inspired by scientific research and ecological storytelling, you’ll germinate, grow, adapt, and survive in a living environment shaped by climate, biodiversity, and the passage of time. 🌱
Combining real biology with innovative gameplay, VIVID is probably the world’s first scientifically grounded cozy plant survival simulation — inviting players to rediscover their connection with nature.
Planned for PC, Switch and mobile devices in 2027, with additional platforms under consideration. 📱

VALUES WE SHARE
Our mission is to create video games that entertain, inspire, and encourage people to see the natural world from new perspectives.
We believe meaningful games can foster curiosity, empathy, and responsibility while remaining fairly priced, free from microtransactions and dark patterns, and developed as resource-efficiently as possible. 🎯
Our vision is a future where video games do more than entertain — they inspire people to appreciate, protect, and reconnect with nature.
We believe creativity can help build a more sustainable, compassionate, and hopeful world. 💚
ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS
We create games that make ecological relationships tangible and inspire players to better understand the natural world and humanity’s role within it.
SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability shapes the way we work, from responsible development practices to creating games designed for lasting value instead of short-term monetization.
COEXISTENCE
We believe every species plays a role in maintaining healthy ecosystems. Our games celebrate biodiversity and the connections that unite all forms of life.
ANIMAL WELFARE
We believe animals deserve respect. Our games promote compassionate representation and reject unnecessary harm.
