Double Dusk is a remote games studio focused on the power of teamwork in Unreal Engine 5. We’re focusing on a double down game model where we start with smaller games on PC and then expand 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

Hey there! We’re Alexander and Alex, two veteran Y Combinator startup founders, game developers, and life-long gamers. After years working on AAA projects like VALORANT and educational products for K-12 students like Freckle, we decided to create the dream studio where we’d love to spend the rest of our careers.

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.

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 will only get there if we put the work in and think differently.

work with us

We chose the name Double Dusk to 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.
