Bonfire Studios

At the heart of Bonfire Studios is a culture deeply rooted in the belief that great games are born from the passion of small, talented teams who are empowered to dream big. The studio was founded with the vision of creating a space where veteran game developers can do their best work, free from the constraints of larger corporate structures. This ethos is encapsulated in their name, 'Bonfire,' which symbolizes a gathering place for friends to share stories and forge stronger bonds. This sense of community and fellowship is what they aim to replicate in the multiplayer games they create, designing experiences that bring players together in a shared sense of adventure and exploration. The team at Bonfire, or 'Bonfironis' as they call themselves, fosters a 'people-first' work culture built on a foundation of trust, autonomy, and open collaboration. They believe that the best ideas can come from anywhere and encourage every member of the team, regardless of their role, to contribute to the creative process.

This collaborative spirit is put into practice through daily company-wide playtests, which serve not only to gather invaluable feedback on their projects but also to break down silos between different departments and reinforce their shared passion for gaming. Bonfire Studios is committed to building legendary experiences by working with their community, not just for them. They prioritize open dialogue with players, using their input to shape features and create the best possible game. This commitment to people extends to their internal team, where they are dedicated to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment that supports individual growth and well-being. From a robust benefits package to personal development opportunities, they provide the scaffolding upon which amazing teams and, ultimately, great games are built. They seek out lifelong learners with a growth mindset, team players who prioritize collective success, and passionate gamers who love to build and explore imaginary worlds.
