About Us

We formed our team in 2007 as a group of like-minded individuals inspired by Microsoft's remarkable XNA initiative that brought console development to pretty much everyone, for free.

We each have a long history of game playing, from the ZX81 days to today. Over the years we've managed to release games with contributions from talented team members in England, Scotland, Norway, France and the US. We develop games we love playing for whatever platform will have us.

Or, in the case of our logo, the large flag you see on the end of a knight's lance:
