Our Work Culture
We have created a respectful work environment, which values each team member’s work-life-balance and fosters continuous improvement.
Respect
We foster and value diversity in our team. We do not tolerate any toxicity whether within the company, nor in our games. We make sure to regularly play together and do some “non-productive” activities together. We support several initiatives such as the Fem Devs Meetup and team diversity.
Work-life-balance
We offer very flexible working conditions. You can choose whether you work in our Cologne office, or from anywhere else in Germany. You work when you want with super flexible working times and just a small amount of core hours during the day. We have never and will never use crunch to develop our games.
Continuous Improvement
We make sure that each one of us gets to hone and improve their skills, through in depth feedback and by offering workshops and trade conference visits. Furthermore we constantly keep iterating on our own processes to work as efficiently as possible.
