Apps · Games · Literature

Small studio.
Wayward ideas.

We make things we'd want to use ourselves: apps that are a pleasure to open, games worth a second run, and stories that change with the reader.

Who we are

WaywardJay was founded in New York by Johnnery De Jesus, an engineering manager who builds with AI every day. The studio is small on purpose: one founder, a lot of automation, and products we'd want to use ourselves.
