MAKA

MAKA (《玛卡之歌》) is an indie adventure-puzzle game built around birds and song-based interaction, developed by SilverJay (银鸟工作室), a roughly 10-person team of Gen Z developers from New York University and nearby schools . Players take the role of a small bird listening to the chants of a wandering bard named Maka—red-capped, robed—on a slow-unfolding journey where birdsong becomes melody and the pace deliberately rejects combat or leveling grind . The team, led by founder Alex Liu Pincun (刘品村), has been pulling all-nighters to make the game "more bird-like" and brought it to Steam and the 2025 ChinaJoy floor this August . In the studio's own framing, the entire experience is structured as one grand song that Maka sings .
