Dreaming up bold, otherworldly game universes.

Jalapeno Labs is a game studio crafting surreal sci-fi worlds with emotive art direction, systemic gameplay, and unforgettable co-op moments. We obsess over atmosphere, discovery, and giving players a universe worth getting lost in.

Founder and CEO

Alex Navarro

I started this journey with one mission: to build bold, inspiring games and tackle the kinds of challenges most people would run from. At Jalapeno Labs, we are not afraid to push boundaries or chase wild ideas. We live for them. Whether it is experimenting with new tech, diving deep into Unreal Engine 5, or crafting worlds that make people say whoa, we are here to do things differently.

I found myself inspired by Jalapeno Labs. Hearing Alex talk about his dream and seeing his drive to make it a reality has pushed me to aim just as high. Together we are working toward something greater than ourselves: building a company that can stand at the forefront of this industry. I consistently seek to understand every aspect of our business, asking questions, troubleshooting challenges, and adapting quickly.
