December brought our next ‘Starloopian Story’ Senior Unreal Developer Kunal Tomar! From Quake 3 and the original Tomb Raider to NFS: Most Wanted and CS 1.6, his passion was gaming and being the best at it. Once he achieved an engineering degree, he found his first break in a leading game company in his home in India. Upon being approached by Starloop Studios, Kunal says he took one look at their portfolio and jumped straight in! Now working with Starloop, he’s loved the culture among his fellow Starloopian’s as he knows he’s surrounded by gamers and those who enjoy a healthy work-life balance.
Next, check out our video which showcases some of the projects worked on by Starloop Studios over the past year. They extended a huge thanks to all those clients who trusted Starloop Studios with their work and dreams and shared their excitement for the year ahead!
Over in Ringtail Studios‘ newest office, they have no shortage of talent or expertise! We featured an article about Gennadii Ishkulov, who is a member of the Georgia team in their newest office in Tbilisi, Georgia. A relatively new entrant into the games’ industry Gennadii joined Ringtail Studios a few months prior and began his work with gaming. His work is mainly focused on working with environmental art, lighting of locations, and optimization. Aside from art, Gennadii’s knowledge of Unreal Engine makes him a perfect candidate to help solve any UE issues and to write technical documentation for projects.
According to Ringtail they have had a fantastic year of interesting projects, challenging tasks and exciting growth. They spent some time this month getting into the festive spirit with decorations, gnomes and ice skating!
