I've been looking forward to announce this! Yes, we are growing the company and will be hiring. It's all about game-playing bots to improve testing and other aspects of game development.
We are thrilled to announce that we’ve raised $8.4 million to redefine the game development process. We aim to make it more efficient and enjoyable. We’re eager to get the product to you soon; this funding will help us get there faster. hubs.la/Q01r7jGp0
