Software you can see.
We build Divooka™ — a general-purpose visual programming system where a program is a graph you can lay out, inspect and run — plus the creative tools, utilities and games that come out of it.

Four things we make
One platform at the centre, and everything we build with it around the edge.
The platform
Divooka™ — a general-purpose visual programming system, its engine, and the editions built on it.
Explore Divooka™Creative tools
Planet painters, voxel worlds, renderers — software for people who make things up for a living.

Small, curious games on Steam and itch.io — and a Steam publisher page collecting them all.

Divooka™ — general-purpose visual programming
Divooka is a 4th-generation visual programming system. You build a program as a graph of nodes you can position, inspect and execute — with real C# and Python underneath, so the same document scales from a five-node script to a shipped application.
Not another DSL
General-purpose from the start: file and text processing, 2D geometry, audio, images, procedural terrain and planets, SVG, in-memory SQL, simulation, 3D rendering, web services and desktop apps.
Real code underneath
C# and Python interoperation, NuGet imports and a compiled runtime. Drop into text exactly where a graph stops being the right shape for the problem — and no further.
Batteries included
Toolboxes for data analytics, image and audio work, plotting, system automation, API testing and GenAI services arrive installed — not assembled from a dozen packages first.
Runs on your machine
A standalone, self-contained distribution. No account is required to compute, and nothing leaves your computer unless a node you placed sends it there.
It ships real software
App Mode turns a graph into a usable interface. From the same document you can package a standalone executable, serve a web API, or publish an interactive notebook.
Extensible by design
Divooka™ Engine is a bring-your-own-nodes C# framework. Write a plugin, publish a package, or embed the engine inside your own product.
Installed, not assembled
Every toolbox above ships inside Divooka™ Explore. There is no package manager to learn before you can read a CSV, resample audio, raymarch a shader or stand up a web API — the nodes are already in the palette, and they are searchable from the canvas.
Reach past them whenever you want to: import a NuGet package, drop into C# or Python, or write a plugin against Divooka™ Engine and add a toolbox of your own.

Now & next
What we’re shipping
Out now, free to try, or landing shortly — the four things worth your attention this year.
Out now on Steam
Steam — Q2 2026
Divooka™ Explore
Our flagship visual programming system arrives on Steam in Q2 2026, and is already available on itch.io. Process data, generate worlds, build applications, or just experiment with computation on a canvas.
Free download
Methodox™ Voxel Sandbox
Roll a world that has never existed from a seed, walk into it and build, then hold it still and photograph it with a progressive path tracer — out to PNG or a raw Radiance HDR. Ships with a scene viewer for MagicaVoxel, Goxel, OpenVDB and Minecraft schematics.
Steam coming soon
A Detective Story
An 80s-style pixel art detective simulator where you interrogate suspects in plain English. Characters answer dynamically as you gather evidence, work the map and take the case to court.

How we work
A small studio building durable software
At Methodox™ Technologies, Inc. we build productivity software, led by our flagship visual programming system, Divooka™. The goal is to make powerful computing approachable, so that more people can solve their own problems with software instead of waiting for someone else to.
Methodox is a commercial venture — we need revenue to fund and realise the vision — but making the technology accessible to the general public has always been part of the plan. That is why the engine is free, the wiki is public, and the textbook is online.

Made by people
Real humans design and write our software. We use AI where it genuinely helps, expose it as a tool inside our products, and don’t pretend it is the product.
Local-first, self-contained
Our software installs and runs on your machine. Standalone distributions, no mandatory accounts, and no features held hostage to a subscription check.
Built to last
Battle-tested foundations — C#, Python, open standards — with documentation, a wiki, a textbook and release notes we actually keep current.
Software diversity matters
The world benefits from variety in software the way it does in food or design. Divooka offers a different style, and a genuinely different way to approach a programming problem.

Questions
The FAQ lives in the wiki
We keep every answer in one maintained place rather than letting copies drift apart. It covers what Divooka can do, how it compares to other tools, licensing, platforms and the AI question.
