The Museum of Human Achievement is a multi-disciplinary art space and non-profit organization in Austin, Texas. We cultivate new work, community, and vibe by providing radically affordable arts space to support artists and audiences in the creation of new ideas.
Astro Duel 2 is a sci-fi combat game combining top-down space dog fights with up-close platforming action. Whether versus or co-op, battle through space and on foot at the same time! Strike within the fully-destructible arenas or just nuke ‘em from orbit.
Wild Rooster is an independent game studio in Austin, Texas. We make the kind of multiplayer games that you want to share with your friends. Our games combine a nostalgic arcade experience with adrenaline-packed gameplay. Like a warm hug punching you in the face.
Dyebreaker is a two-button “air hockey platformer” with visuals inspired by screen print posters and the Game Boy Color. Two teams jump around a dynamic stage and push the puck towards opposing goals, either by boosting into it or by “riding” it – players can hop onto slow-moving pucks, move them, then shoot them in any direction.
Each stage is a mish-mash of hazards: spinning fans, gates that open and close, booster pads, moving walls, and more. Scoring enough goals wins the stage, and winning a stage adds a layer of color to the winner’s screen print. Each match consists of a handful of stages pulled from a large pool, lasting until one team has won enough stages to complete their poster art!
Dyebreaker is a work-in-progress and this prototype focuses on gameplay. The final game will feature many playable teams, each with their own unique characters and poster art.
Dyebreaker is designed and developed by Walt Mitchell, who also draws some of the pixel art. Walt is a webdev-turned-gamedev who made a handful of arcade games and now works in the games industry professionally, mostly on game UI. Walt is assisted by his childhood friend, Ramsey Haefner, an L.A.-based animator and illustrator who has been developing Dyebreaker’s color palettes, UI design, and pixel art.

Pixel Pushers Union 512 is a worker-owned cooperative. We produced the successful title, “Tonight We Riot” and operate on the principles of Shop Democracy, wherein every team member has a say and profits are split evenly across the board.
V-Shift is a high-intensity, fast-paced, battle platformer where mastering your movement is key to victory. Choose your champion and become the ultimate gladiator in a galaxy-wide alien arena. Master the V-Shift: velocity is damage; stillness is death.
Founded in 2024, Propel Studios began as a team of seven passionate UT Austin students, creating V-Shift as their senior capstone project. Fueled by their own dedication, they continued to work on V-Shift post-school, publishing the game on Steam and showcasing at GDC Play 2025. Embracing the chaos of creativity as a tool to improve, Propel Studios push themselves to design games that are as engaging to play as they are exciting to master, bringing friends and rivals together in unforgettable battles.
