The Life of Pie: Photos

If you’ve ever wondered what life is like inside Mobile Pie’s perimeters, wonder no more! Office manager Liz has been surreptitiously snapping us hard at work, and here are the results! More photos to come: watch this space.

Discussions and decisions in the meeting room

Tommy P is especially happy to have the mugs delivered, he designed them!

Named mugs with our drinks orders on (meaning full brain power is devoted to work!)

Our awesome-stuff depository. Books on programming and rubix cubes alike.

Tom Hannon in creation mode...but what's he creating?

Mobile Pie Sweden!

Some big Mobile Pie news to reveal today, we now have a Swedish office! Tom Dowding has relocated to Stockholm and set up shop in Entreprenörskyrkan, near Odenplan. It’s a fantastic creative space full of friendly folk and is perfect for the start of Mobile Pie’s international expansion!

It’s clear that Scandinavia in general is a hot bed of talented people and forward thinking ideas, and culturally seems to have exploded in the last few years. The thriving games industry is indicative of that and some fantastic studios are based there, so we’re hugely excited by the opportunity to be right in amongst it.

Tom will be at some upcoming events such as Swedish Game Awards Conference (this Friday) Unite Nordic & Nordic Game in Malmö (May) and Money Talks Forum in Tampere, Finland (June), so if you’re planning to be at any of those it would be great to meet!

Mobile Pie’s (Half) Day Off!

It’s that time of year again…British-pseudo-summer! What better way to celebrate than on a self-drive barge or two, providing not only high-octane thrills (top speeds of 4mph) but also the choice between outdoor basking and shelter from potential rainfall!

Mobile Pie’s team days out are becoming the stuff of legend, sort of like a Bullingdon Club do that is at once more AND less classy. This year, we sampled the delights of Bristol Cider Shop’s finest, The Handmade Scotch Egg Company’s most delectable, on Bath’s most exclusive, what some have called its ‘only’, canal.

Regard this documentary evidence of the event, and if you’d like to be included in next year’s outing, get really good at making games and we might just hire you.

Apologies for a bit of own trumpet-blowing, but we wanted to share the success of one of our biggest apps in recent times, CBeebies Playtime for BBC. It’s available for iOS, Google Play, Amazon and WindowsPhone 8 stores. You can see what it’s all about in the video above.

The app was recently shown on Apple’s top seller’s lists for 2013, appearing in the top 50 free iPad apps (based on downloads).

It also was chosen by The Guardian as one of their top 50 apps of the year!

It’s performed really well with persistent appearance at the top of the Kid’s charts and fantastic reviews. So thanks to CBeebies and everyone who’s downloaded!
