Description

Codeglue is a game development studio based in the urban city center of Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Founded in 2000 by two University friends, Codeglue nowadays develops games for PC and for the latest generation of consoles. Our games feel great to play, have a note-worthy art style and have an innovative design angle. We love to work together with other fellow game developers and we're always tinkering with the latest innovations whether it's virtual reality, augmented reality or blockchain technology.

History

Past

Codeglue was founded in 2000 by Maurice Sibrandi and Peter de Jong. They have known each other since pre-university education where they became friends and shared their love for the Commodore Amiga 500. At university they both studied Technical Computer Science and they graduated at a company called Dima, developing a platform game called Joe Guard for the Philips CD-i player. That really kickstarted their love for game development and they founded Codeglue in 2000, where they focused on the upcoming mobile games sector.

With the rise of new digital download platforms like XBLA and PSN, Codeglue found new platforms to develop games for. This resulted in the launch of Rocket Riot on XBLA, Codeglue's first console game, which won a Dutch Game Award for Best Visual Design in 2009! Since then Rocket Riot has founds its way to many new platforms, like Windows Phone, iOS and Windows 8. Codeglue is also one of the leading publishers in PlayStation Home, selling virtual goods from its Cardboard Cartel store.

Present

At this moment we are working Antegods. Antegods is a 2.5D battle arena in which two teams of spacefaring Mayans power up colossal Titans by outplaying their opponents with improvised strategies and tactics in procedurally generated worlds. #gaspingforbreath ;)
