Concept

We partnered with Mighty Picnic and PBS KIDS to develop three games for the Emmy-nominated property Lyla in the Loop. Across the games, we brought series’ computational thinking and problem-solving curriculum to life through playful interactive experiences that also celebrate creativity, self-expression, and everyday challenges kids can relate to. We were honored that Lyla & Stu’s Hairdos won a Kidscreen Award and was also recognized as a 2025 Webby Honoree in the Kids & Family category.

Lyla & Stu's Hairdos

Help Lyla get ready with a hairstyle all her own! Players can wash, section, style, and decorate her hair, experimenting with different looks and including their own creativity and preference in a playful and engaging way.

Of course, Stu gets a turn, too! We created a fun, sandbox-style exploratory play where players can create fun new looks for Stu using hands-on styling tools. Cut, brush, and color away at his fur!

Stu's Delivery Service

Fan-favorite Stu stars in Stu’s Delivery Service, which turns deliveries into a problem-solving adventure! Players can modify and customize their delivery van, then help Stu navigate obstacles and unexpected challenges to get each item to the right person.

Vacuum Hockey

Vacuum Hockey turns friendly competition into a fast-paced game set in the world of Lyla in the Loop. Players can face off solo or with a friend, protect their goal, and try to score while navigating different maps, obstacles, and gear combinations. Customizable balls, shoes, and vacuum nozzles each change player stats, adding an extra layer of strategy to every match.

Together, these games transform everyday moments into playful experiences that celebrate creativity, experimentation, and problem-solving. The result is a warm and joyful extension of Lyla in the Loop that feels true to the series’ spirit.
