About Hothead Games
Hothead Games Inc. was an independent video game developer based in Vancouver, Canada, founded in 2006 by former Radical Entertainment staff.
The company focused on creating memorable games across various platforms, including console, PC, and mobile. Over nearly 20 years, Hothead became one of Canada's largest independent mobile game studios, recognized for its workplace excellence. The studio developed a range of games in genres such as action, role-playing, and strategy. Notable titles include "Kill Shot Bravo," a popular mobile sniper game, and "DeathSpank," an action RPG. Hothead Games provided comprehensive game development services, from concept to live operations, catering to publishers and mobile gamers, particularly in the US and China. Despite its achievements, the company transitioned to liquidation in December 2024 after facing challenges in securing publishing deals.
