About Smokyfish Ltd.

Smokyfish Ltd. was founded as a game development company by Ivan Samokish together with Constantine Tereshenko. We are just two individuals who want to create and publish fun games for Android, iOS, Mac or Windows. If you are interested in a partnership or have any questions about our work, please contact us.

Smokyfish creates original artwork, illustrations and designs for all its games. Our website will feature demo gameplay videos, trailers or other application or game-related materials published on the Apple Store, Google Play, Steam or any other platforms. All work is original and all rights are reserved by Smokyfish Ltd.

Smokyfish Ltd. has a long history as a web development company, since 2014 (with a name change in 2017), but is focused on in-house game development. However, Smokyfish is currently open for work on commission or partnership with individual clients or companies to provide our usual range web development services. Our web design and development kitchen is open  to provide very fine sidedishes. Check out our full Sidedishes menu here!

Ivan Samokish
Founder

Back in high school a classmate could not pronounce Ivan’s last name. Instead they said “SMOKYFISH” and that nickname has stuck ever since. The Smokyfish logo is influenced by the Japanese Maneki-neko (招き猫), which is a talisman/charm believed to bring good luck to the owner (Wikipedia).

Ivan Samokish rebranded the previous company founded in 2014 to Smokyfish Ltd. in 2017 to develop and publish games. Ivan is the creative force behind all the ideas featured and published by Smokyfish. If you are interested, you can learn more about Ivan’s experience on LinkedIn.

Some of Ivan’s favourite games include: The Legend of Zelda series, Death Stranding, Witcher 3, Stardew Valley and the Yokai Watch series.
