Welcome to Lone Penguin Studios!

Life’s a Vacuum!

Sometimes life just sucks!

Welcome to Life’s a Vacuum—a cozy, lighthearted game about building your very own vacuum cleaning empire.

Start small with your trusty upright vacuum and handheld cleaner, taking on humble house-cleaning gigs. As your reputation grows, so do your opportunities: clean restaurants, tidy up museums, and eventually land contracts with the biggest companies in Vacuumland.

This is the ultimate escapist experience, designed for players who just want to relax and enjoy the oddly satisfying joy of cleaning. Lift furniture, manage battery levels, clean up after yourself, and experiment with a variety of quirky tools to tackle every mess in your path.

Whether you're a neat freak or just looking for a chill way to unwind, Life’s a Vacuum is all about finding fun in the mundane—and proving that even when life sucks, it can still be a good time.

🐧 About Lone Penguin Studios Waddling into worlds worth remembering

Lone Penguin Studios is a one-person game development studio built on a lifelong passion for gaming—and a deep love for penguins.

My journey into video games began in childhood, playing alongside my older brother on the Game Boy and Mega Drive. From our first PlayStation to every console since, gaming has been a constant source of joy, escape, and unforgettable memories. It’s this magic I hope to recreate through the games I develop—experiences that help people forget their troubles and make memories that last.

The name Lone Penguin is more than a metaphor. Growing up, penguins were my favorite animal. My fascination began with watching Pingu, and ever since, I’ve dreamed of seeing a penguin in real life. Their charm, resilience, and quirky nature always resonated with me. So as I set out solo into the world of game development, it felt only fitting to become the lone penguin—on a creative adventure to bring heartfelt, memorable games to life.
