How we work
Four things we do on purpose
We prototype in public
Every idea gets two weeks and a playable build. If nobody at the studio wants to play it at lunch, it does not get a third week. Most of what we start does not survive this, and that is the point.
We build our own tools
Our editor, our physics solver and our localisation pipeline are ours. It is slower at the start and much faster afterwards, and it means a designer can change the game without waiting for an engineer.
We test with people, not metrics
We watch people play in the same room before we look at a single funnel. Numbers tell you that something is wrong; a person's face tells you where. We do both, in that order.
We ship, then we stay
Launch is the middle of the work. Tessera has had eleven content updates since release and none of them added a currency. We support a game for as long as people are playing it.
