About us
Goat Shed Games is a small independent studio in the Cheshire countryside, hand-crafting mobile and PC games.
Founded by Mark Rhodes as an escape from regular software engineering work with the dream being to work on games full-time. Currently a one-man band but going forwards we hope to expand and give opportunities to those who would struggle to find employment elsewhere.
The studio is named after the goat shed outside the studio window, home to our two goats, LeBron James and Alison Hammond, who keep us occupied with their Houdini-like escapades.
The people
The humans behind the pixels.
