The Studio

Procrastination Gaming is a solo indie studio founded and run by Mike Lancaster — a developer with a passion for classic strategy games, immersive worlds, and the kind of ambition that keeps shipping dates comfortably far in the future.

Every project starts from one question: what game do I wish existed? The studio builds for players who want depth, soul and worlds worth exploring — no filler, no grind for its own sake.
