Timbre Games

Joe & Geoff are headed to GDC this year - and at least one of them is planning on working.

It’s kind of felt like ‘Groundhog’s Day’ in the games industry the last few years - Closure, Cancellation, Repeat. Things ARE starting to look brighter - but anyone who tells you they know what’s going to happen next is full of it.
At Timbre, we’ve been watching, adjusting, and getting ready for the next era in games - something we haven’t seen before, but that we know is going to make for some amazing experiences. We’re ready to play our part - how about you?

Hey Folks, Joe here from Timbre Games.
I am excited to serve as the Host and MC of the exciting keynotes at External Development Summit (XDS) again this year.
But that's not the news - THIS IS!!

Imagine YOU attending External Development Summit (XDS) September 2nd-5th in beautiful downtown Vancouver for FREE!!
Yes - it’s true. XDS has provided a GOLDEN TICKET 🎫 for Timbre Games to give away to a Developer/Publisher!
This means if you are a company making your own IP and are looking to meet providers to get your game done - then Timbre Games has your chance!

This is the games industry’s premier external development event, and it sells out quickly!

The lucky winner will receive ONE GOLDEN TICKET 🎫 which gets you:

- Four full days of the conference, with access to all XDS mainstage presentations, panels, round-tables, and table-topics.
- Full access to XDS Connect - our exclusive B2B platform offering unlimited meeting scheduling and other features.
- Entry to XDS's engaging social events and happy hours for informal networking.

Timbre’s GDC experience would make a great game! We had a blast, and ran into so many old friends last week. Can’t wait to do it all again next year!

Timbre Games is strapping on the Creative Director-carrier and heading down to Game Developers Conference - GDC this year! Joe and Geoff will be down from March 17th to the 20th and their calendars are already filling up...but reach out to them, Rob Edgar or Kristina Blanco of Studio Capital Management to set up a meeting.
See you in SF!

The games industry has been quite a ride these last few years, hasn’t it?
At Timbre, we’ve been conspicuously quiet for a while (which, if you know us, is NOT on brand)! We’ve been busy with legal work and setting up the future of the company, and in the coming weeks, we’re stoked to share more details about our journey as an independent studio.

Watch this space….

An announcement from Joe Nickolls, Timbre’s CEO:

Some big news to share today. As many of you know, Timbre Games Studio had to close our doors a couple of months ago, but we weren’t quite ready to throw in the towel just yet.

The great people at Sumo Digital Ltd have helped us transition into a fully independent studio and allowed us to take the Timbre Games name and brand with us, and we are very grateful for their help.

The support we have received from the gaming community has been nothing short of amazing.

We are also proud to partner with our friends Rob Edgar & Kristina Blanco at Studio Capital Management handling business development!

Along with Geoff Coates I am excited to share more about our new leadership team and future of Timbre Games Studio in the months to come.

There is no better group of people in games than the folks of Timbre.
Our thoughts are with each of our Timberoos, as we work to find new homes for all of them. Please reach out if your studio is looking for amazing people, filled with talent and heart.
We thank each and every one of them for making Timbre the amazing place it was for the last 3 years.

Four more talented Timberoos join us this week!
Zach Williams is Timbre's new Lead Core Gameplay Designer, and Emmalyn Rynard is our new Materials Artist. Greg Burgess is Timbre's newest QA Analyst, while Vincent-Gabriel Canadian joins us as Timbre's new Senior VFX Artist.
What a crew! Welcome to all!
