XMG Studio is looking for game developers and artists for upcoming projects

Toronto (March 16, 2011) – Toronto based mobile game developer XMG Studio is growing its team to staff up for a flurry of upcoming projects including expansions of existing properties, new original game projects as well as games based on high-profile licensed properties.

Building on its first year of success, XMG is looking to expand its winning team. In its first year XMG released more than a dozen games including award-winners Pandemica, Drag Racer: Pro Tuner, Style Studio: Fashion Designer and Cannon Cadets. XMG has built up a reputation of delivering high-quality, polished games that stand out in the crowd of almost half a million iPhone apps.

“We are building on our first year of success and ramping up for an amazing year two,” said Ray Sharma, Founder and CEO of XMG Studio. “We have a strong roadmap of games for the year and we want to bring in the best game developers, designers and artists to help us deliver awesome games.”

The company takes great care to create a work environment that is conducive to creativity and innovation. There is a steady supply of food including breakfast each morning and weekly lunches as well as frequent company outings such as go-karting and trips to the movies. Employees also get the opportunity to attend industry events such as Game Developers Conference and Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference.

“Our number one priority is making games that people love to play,” said Adam Telfer, VP, Game Development. ” The awards and Apple features are awesome, but there is nothing better than seeing someone on a train or in line at the bank who is playing one of your games.”
