An "anti-crunch" studio that wants diversity and creative freedom

"We are creating a studio from scratch because of the way we want to make games. We want time to iterate on everything, get ideas and feedback from the whole team. We are building this study to last for decades and that doesn't happen if you don't put the team first, "McCoy says in a letter published to announce the study's opening.

– Looking for profiles that fit animation, art, audio, engineering, game design, and QA departments. Although remote work is currently an imposition, the founders of the study assure that his idea is to be able to maintain that form of production to increase diversity and not to do without talents for living in another geographical area.
