  • Rewriting old player movement code

    In my first and previous post in this game dev log entry, I had written that I wanted to do a game which was a collection of simple retro games. Unity released a new major release (2019.3) while I was putting the initial project together, and I…

I got a query via email on this. I know it used to be Atari Melbourne House, but they have shrunk a lot over the years.

So which studio is the largest in Melbourne now, and roughly how many employees do they have? (I'm guessing Blue Tongue or IR Gurus, but I'd like a more decisive answer before I pass along the info)

I know we're likely not the largest, but we have almost 50 people here at Torus Games and we're growing larger (steadily, but surely).

I'm an IR Gurus guy and we're getting bigger everyday...I used to know everyone but it's starting to get out of hand! :-)

You got some rough numbers to throw at me? Last of what I heard, Blue Tongue were around 60-70 people, but I'm guessing IR Gurus (which is Thatgame as well) along with the recent planned hirings should be over that number?
