The Team

Ian Blackburn

CEO & FOUNDER

Made his first money in software writing a version of Pacman for the TRS-80. TRS-80! That ten quid didn’t go far though, so he gave up and let everyone else do the work for him. Kind, generous, intelligent, good-looking man. Signs the paycheques.

Paul Caley

DEVELOPMENT MANAGER

Centre of the operation. Banned from his local chip shop because he has to have a finger in every pie. Family origins are from the Isle of Man so has three legs, no tail, and hates paying tax.

Andy Hill

FINANCIAL DIRECTOR

When he's not on the golf course, or on a grand tour of Europe, or at a black-tie dinner, or entertaining at a major sports event, you'll find him working incredibly hard in his office. Unless he's at lunch. And except in the afternoons and all day on Friday of course, when he's playing golf. It's a tough gig, Finance Director.

Ben Dean

SENIOR DEVELOPER

Like all coders, Ben takes an hour to eat his Alphabetti Spaghetti because he has to finish all the 'A's before starting the 'B’s and so on. Tells jokes like, "There are 10 kinds of people, those who know binary and those who don’t." We once gave him Numberetti so that he could finish his lunch whilst it was still warm. Big mistake. Developers don’t like sudden changes to their routines.

Alex Gow

JUNIOR DEVELOPER

The newest member of the team, he is also the youngest and the most northern. Enjoys walks in the sun and finding the hidden gems amongst the Scottish countryside
