The strength of a game developer is all down to its people. The only way to have the best studio in a particular field is to employ the best people, to learn from everyone’s different experiences and to grow from there. At Razorback we are quite fussy about who joins the team, but we believe that fussiness more than pays off and helps build our reputation for quality, creativity and reliability.
