Redcatpig

"The calm before the storm" I can't get tired of this view approaching Pico Island so I'm sharing it with you all. This is the highest peak of Portugal. gamescom is around the corner and as usual, I take sometime with the family in Pico to recharge and put a few things in perspective. I got to say that this year is a special one, big things coming for Redcatpig. #gamescom #redcatpig #azores

Paulo Bastos is that guy, the one on TVI (national broadcast) who has the enviable tech reporter job. His mission is to provide what we #gamedevs and tech-nerds want, inducing us to rediscover the ON button on the TV remote as if it was airing during prime time . So let Redcatpig endorse Paulo, even though he doesn’t need it -> Paulo is entirely legit. When we won the Playstation Talent awards he was the first to interview us, kicking off a new chapter for Redcatpig. It’s rather nice to close the loop and have him here at our home in TERINOV - Science and Technology Park. And why is he entirely legit, you may ask? He only doesn’t help more when it’s not possible. Thanks for all Paulo Bastos.

Bridges emerged as a large solution to a problem, connecting A to B. However some of those bridges happen to be subsea. Great news for the digital segment companies based in the Azores, such as Redcatpig. Google has announced another landing spot for its Trans-Atlantic Nuvem cable.The forthcoming system will now be deployed on the Portuguese Azores islands, where a data center investment will be made until 2026. The actual connection to the Azores dates back to 1999 and is nearing the end of its useful life, so we're hoping for a replacement rather than a patch. It’s now even safer to say that we work in a good place. No, a great place! Not enough, the best place to create videogames. Azores is going forward as a digital hub. Proud. #digitalhub #gamedev #google #azores https://lnkd.in/d6DB4NBr

Terinov has only been around for four years, yet it already has hundreds of people and projects involved. We are proud to state that we are part of the ecosystem and have been with Terinov since the beginning. We'll stay here as long as we're welcome. But even if we were not, we wouldn’t let go. Parabéns Terinov.

If there’s one #gamedev event that we cannot afford to miss, that event my friends - is Gamescom. Year after year, Redcatpig finds refuge in Cologne, Germany, between the perfect balance of professionals and the general public, composing a vibrating atmosphere on the largest European gaming convention. Most of our friends will be there, but we always have room for newcomers. We’ll add a Portuguese twist to the mix - meaning an envious lifestyle - but looking out to create innovative opportunities in Co-Dev or Full Cycle Dev, Research and Development, and we also have a treat for gamers that want to raise their blood pressure with our own IP’s KEO and Hovershock. Don’t miss out, gamescom 21 - 25 August. #gamescom #gamescom2024

At Redcatpig, we’re always looking to get new talent onboard. But it is a challenge, a worldwide one. Take Jose Antonio Sanchez Kornfeld for instance, originally from Chile, was discovered wandering in Spain before visiting Redcatpig.  And he never left, willingly. NO ONE ever wishes to leave Redcatpig! It’s just standard procedure. Great Place to Work® Portugal #wearealwayshiring #gamedev #remotework

At Redcatpig, we have a diverse team working both in our studios and remotely. This week was special as Jose Antonio Sanchez Kornfeld, who usually works with us from Madrid, joined us at our studio in the Azores. It was a pleasure having you with us. Until next time! 🌟 #TeamWork #RemoteWork #gamedev
