NoCode Rebrands to Screen Burn

Scottish game whizzes, once called NoCode, now go by Screen Burn. Weird name change? Maybe, but hear me out. The crew chatted about this on their site—kind of like spilling the tea about why the old name just didn’t vibe anymore. Once upon a time (2015-ish), they kicked off with this whole “no coder needed” vibe. Pretty wild, right? Made cool stuff like Stories Untold and Observation. Oh, and they’re also diving into the whole Silent Hill: Townfall thing for Konami. No biggie.

But, plot twist—they’ve got a bunch of coders now. Tons, actually. So, calling themselves NoCode? Yeah, not so fitting. That old name, it was kind of this rad anti-coder flag-waving. Now it’s everywhere like a catchy jingle. Their inbox? Total chaos. Inbox Zero dreams—crushed.

So, then comes the big question: “If we’re not NoCode, what the heck are we?” Turns out, they’re all about that old-school tech nostalgia. Picture it: clunky analogue TVs, those floppy disk drives with the stubborn 3.5″ diskettes. It’s that imperfection that’s got charm, like a game that lingers in your head even after the screen goes dark. That’s Screen Burn—a name like an arcade screen that’s lived through play sessions, with a few scars and a story to tell. Makes sense… kinda?
