A downloadable tool
Keep your indie game project organized from idea to release.
Game Dev Control Kit is an offline, engine-neutral project management workbook built for solo developers and small indie teams.

• Feature and milestone
• Acceptance criteria management
• Task management and actual-hours tracking
• Bug tracking with severity and age indicators
• QA tracking • Release gates and readiness
• Changelog management
• Connected records using IDs
• Example project to help you understand the workflow
• XLSX and ODS formats
Built to stay simple
No account. No subscription. No server. No game-engine lock-in.
Download the files, open the workbook and manage your project locally.
Designed for
• Solo game developers • Small indie teams • Game jam projects that grow into larger projects • Developers who prefer spreadsheets over complex project-management platforms
How the workflow connects
