About

Double Dusk

Double Dusk is a remote game studio focused on the power of friendship and teamwork. We’re starting with PC and then expanding into multi-platform live service titles alongside our players. Our goal is to build a big, sustainable business that becomes a household name we’re proud of. It’s going to be a lot of work, but we wouldn’t have it any other way.

our team

We founded Double Dusk to bring friends closer together through amazing gaming experiences that support creative teamwork and triumphing against all odds. We hope to echo that in our work environment: we are intending to keep our team small, close-knit and ambitious.

how we work

high performance craft and teamwork. End-to-end ownership with minimal process requires great autonomous collaborators.
player-centric. We have to surpass player’s expectations, and moving quickly to learn from players ensures we know what matters most to finish.
money is how not why. We need to be able to invest long term and deliver the best experiences for players.
empathetic honesty. We value cultivating honest feedback and building the capacity to disagree and commit when needed.
a good laugh cures everything. Games are hard work, so even in the toughest of times, we try to not take ourselves too seriously.

who we are

curiosity led. We lead with a genuine interest in people, ideas, and the unknown. We work hard to understand other points of view, and prefer investigating to being right.
resilient. Startups are turbulent rides and our ambitions require some amount of failure. We view setbacks as opportunities to sharpen our skills.
proactive inclusivity. We strive to create a welcoming environment daily for all our team, past and future, so they can do their best work.
relentless growth mindset. This is an adventure to take a small company to IPO, and beyond. We have to think differently and always seek to improve ourselves.

work with us

We chose the name Double Dusk because we believe the best games are made with a journey into the twilight between the nostalgic past and the emerging future.

If that sounds like a fulfilling adventure, join the dusk side on the double
