Firebrand Games Limited is a British video game developer based in Glasgow , Scotland. The company was founded by chief executive officer Mark Greenshields in 2006 and has operated a second office in Merritt Island, Florida , since September 2007.
History
[ edit ]
Firebrand Games was founded by Mark Greenshields in 2006, after his previous venture, DC Studios , closed its operations in the United Kingdom earlier that year.[1] He became the new company's chief executive officer .[2] In September 2007, the company announced the opening a second office in Merritt Island, Florida .[3] [4] This office replaced DC Studios' only remaining studio, which was based in Montreal .[5] In September 2009, Firebrand Games' headquarters were moved into new, larger office spaces within Glasgow .[6] By August 2010, primarily due to the cost of doing business in Scotland, the Meritt Island office had grown larger in headcount than the Glasgow headquarters.[7]
Firebrand Games has primarily worked on Nintendo DS versions of third-party intellectual properties in the racing genre, including TrackMania and Need for Speed .[8] [9] Several of these use the in-house game engine titled 3D Octane.[10] In May 2011, the company stated its desire to develop a game in the F-Zero franchise.[11] Firebrand Games announced its first original intellectual property, the puzzle game Solar Flux , in July 2013.[9]
