Pneuma Launches New Studio: Cast Iron Games

Okay, so here goes. Pneuma Games, yeah, they just kicked off this new thing, Cast Iron Games. It’s tucked away in Tileyard North, in Wakefield. What’s the deal? Well, they’re diving into the big leagues with triple-A co-dev and porting games. You know, the big stuff.

Arden Aspinall and Jon Seymour are driving this ship—CEO and COO, got it? These folks have been around, hopping from TickTock (no, not that one) to Rebellion, and of course, Double Eleven. Oh, and by the way, Cast Iron is kind of like a sibling to Double Eleven. Family ties, but in the gaming world.

Now, here’s a nugget I remember. Aspinall was gushing about how he wanted the company to be as reliable as, well, cast iron. Kind of fitting, right? Talks about delivering top-notch stuff for clients. And there’s this admiration thing going on with Lee and the way he runs Double Eleven. They’re on the same page, apparently. Solid values, sticking together. They’re the safe bet, like wearing your lucky socks on game day, forging partnerships that last.

Seymour chimed in, and man, you could feel the passion. Creating this top-tier vibe for the team was key. It’s like they’re surrounded by this hive of creative whizz-kids all on the same wavelength. Super empowering, it seems. Gives them that freedom to just nail what they do best—making clients’ wild visions a reality.

So, there you have it. Cast Iron Games. Let’s see where this ride takes them.
