CORE VALUES
01

PASSION

We love making games, and we are ambitious about achieving the absolute best of our craft. A healthy balance with our personal lives helps fuel our strong and sustainable work ethic.​

02

curiosity

We are eager to learn, try new things, and push the boundaries of what is possible. We don’t fear failure, because we learn from it. And we ask lots of questions – most importantly: “what if?” ​

03

initiative

We are do-ers. We’re not passengers, we are drivers. We don’t say “that’s not my job”, we say “let me help.” We enjoy the benefits and responsibilities of creative agency in our work.​

04

teamwork

We support, teach, and coach each other. We take responsibility, share credit and hold ourselves accountable. We succeed as a team through empathy and by lifting each other up. ​

05

joy

Making games should be fun, so we foster an environment of joyful creation. We know that the best team is a diverse and inclusive one and we encourage each other to be our fullest selves. ​
