Okay, so here’s the thing. Pneuma Games Group went ahead and spun up this new gig called Cast Iron Games. Yeah, they set up shop in Tileyard North, Wakefield. Sounds fancy, right? What they’re diving into? Triple-A co-development and, um, games porting — whatever that involves. At the driver’s seat, you’ve got Arden Aspinall as CEO and Jon Seymour as COO. These guys have rubbed elbows with folks over at TickTock (no, not the app), Rebellion, and Double Eleven. Quite the résumé.
Anyway, Cast Iron isn’t just floating by itself. It’s like, this sibling gig to Double Eleven. Aspinall seems pumped about it, saying something along the lines of wanting the company to be as solid as, you guessed it, cast iron. Funny how that works. He mentioned Lee and his crew at Double Eleven — looks like there’s some respect or admiration. Maybe both? The whole idea is that they’re sticking close to the Double Eleven playbook, so to speak. Partnerships that don’t just fizz out overnight — that’s the goal. Fingers crossed, I guess.
Then Seymour jumps in. He’s all about making the workspace rad for their team. The energy? Apparently, through the roof. Everyone’s on the same page over there, which makes everything less of a drag, I suppose. And they can focus on the cool stuff, letting those wild and creative client ideas hit the ground running.
The details? They kinda bounce around in my head, but the vibe, the energy — that’s what stuck out. This whole operation, it’s like a well-oiled machine. Not sure why, but thinking about it makes me want to work there. Or maybe just visit. Who knows.
