Okay, so guess what? Pneuma Games Group is up to something new. Yep, they’ve cooked up this shiny studio called Cast Iron Games. I found out it’s nestled in Tileyard North over in Wakefield, and the whole gig is about going big with triple-A co-dev and, uh, game porting? I think that’s right. Oh, and steering this ship are two industry pros, Arden Aspinall and Jon Seymour. These guys have some serious creds from places like TickTock (definitely not to be confused with TikTok), Rebellion, and Double Eleven. Impressive, I know.
Now, here’s the twist—Cast Iron’s actually a sibling of Double Eleven. Yeah, family vibes going on here. Arden shared some thoughts that cracked me up a bit. He wants this company to be as dependable as, well, cast iron. You know, strong and trustworthy, with top-notch results or something like that. He respects Lee and the leadership at Double Eleven and wants to march in step with them. It sounds like a team mantra or something: rock-solid connections, trustworthiness, yada yada.
Jon jumped in too, saying creating a top-tier work environment was key. They’re surrounded by amazing talent, apparently, and it’s like this powerhouse that lets them hone in on their strengths, which is basically making clients’ wild imaginations come to life. Sounds nice, right? Such a whirlwind of creativity and ambition.
Anyway—wait, did I miss anything? Probably. But you get the drift.
