Yacht Club Games is an independent video game development studio and publisher based in the United States, founded in 2011 by Sean Velasco and a team of former WayForward Technologies developers. The studio is known for creating high-quality indie games inspired by classic Nintendo titles.

Their flagship game, Shovel Knight, launched in 2014 after a successful Kickstarter campaign, is a retro-style action platformer that combines nostalgic gameplay with modern design. The game's success led to significant recognition, including a Nintendo eShop store takeover and its own Amiibo figure. Yacht Club Games has also developed other projects, such as Mina the Hollower, which features a female animal protagonist and draws inspiration from the Game Boy Color era.

In addition to video games, Yacht Club Games offers branded merchandise and actively engages with their community through updates, demos, and special events. They cater to gamers who enjoy retro-inspired indie games with a modern touch, focusing on action, platforming, and puzzle elements.
