THE NEXT BIG MAY PROJECT

Whatever we cook next.

The whole point of Big May is that the library keeps growing. Some ideas should probably stay ideas. Ours rarely do.

Big May Joshua tree mark
JOSHUA TREE
WHY BIG MAY?

A name with someone behind it.

Big May Games is named in memory of Josh May.

The name is meant to work two ways: as a proper studio identity for anyone discovering the games for the first time, and as a quiet nod to someone whose larger-than-life spirit deserves to keep showing up in things that bring people together.

That’s why the Joshua tree became part of the identity too. It gives the studio a mark that feels distinct, enduring and personal without needing to explain itself every time you see it.

Make good games. Give people something to come back to. Build a place they want to share with their mates.
FOR JOSH ✦
THE BIG MAY RULE

Free to play.
Worth supporting.

The goal isn’t to lock the fun behind a paywall. Build games people actually want to play first — then give the people who love them a way to help keep the next update coming.

FROM THE SHED

What we’re building.

Dev notes, releases, experiments and the occasional bug that absolutely should not have survived testing.

SEP 2026
Studio

Big May Games is alive.

Domain secured. Joshua tree planted. One home for the whole library.

Migration

The games move in.

Each title gets its own page and Big May subdomain as we move away from scattered hosting links.

AFTER THAT
Community

Bring the fellas.

Public testing, feature votes, changelogs and somewhere to tell us exactly how you broke the game.

KEEP IT INDEPENDENT

Like what we’re making?

Big May games will stay accessible. Once support is switched on, anyone who wants to chuck a few bucks toward hosting, updates and future projects can do it here.
