Established Video Game development team
Unannounced Project
Magic Pixel Games (<a href="http://www.magicpixelgames.com" >http://www.magicpixelgames.com</a>) was founded in 2010 by the core members that developed the award-winning Steven Spielberg's BOOM BLOX. Much of our team has worked together for almost a decade, and we’ve now struck out on our own to continue our tradition of creating extraordinary games. Our first product was launched in 2011: Carnival Island, developed with Sony Santa Monica Studio.
We’re now building a team as we ramp up for our second project, which again, strives to break new ground – but is significantly different from our first in all ways – tone, target audience and style…we’re excited!
Join us and make a difference!
Each member of our closely-knit team makes a very real contribution to the game, and awesome ideas come from everyone. We all wear many hats, we play to each other’s strengths, and we build on each other’s ideas.
Our team moves fast, and takes on big challenges. We love what we do, and you will too!
Note: We're currently located by the Los Angeles airport. At the moment, we are not considering telecommuters.
