Okay, so here we go. Imagine you’re scrolling through the latest game news—nothing too polished or fancy. Just raw thoughts.

Alright, so Pneuma Games Group—they’re in the mood to expand or something. They’ve just started this new gig called Cast Iron Games. Interesting choice of name, right? It’s like they want to be unbreakable or, I dunno, trustworthy? Anyway, they’ve parked themselves in Tileyard North in Wakefield. Not exactly the gaming capital of the world, but who am I to judge?

What are they up to? Planning to dive into triple-A co-development and porting games. I mean, sounds ambitious, but, sure, why not? Oh, and did I mention the big guns in charge? Arden Aspinall and Jon Seymour. These folks have some serious street cred with TickTock (nope, not the dance app), Rebellion, and Double Eleven under their belts. Yeah, they’re seasoned, let’s put it that way.

And here’s a fun fact. Cast Iron isn’t just some random name. Aspinall’s got this whole vision—something about being reliable like, well, cast iron. I mean, I guess that’s good for a company, right?

Speaking of Double Eleven, apparently, they’re like family. Or at least close siblings in the business world. There’s this whole vibe about sticking together, sharing values, and all that heartwarming stuff. I guess it’s their thing—building stuff that lasts. Sounds noble, honestly.

Now, Seymour’s all about creating this crazy-awesome workspace—or so he says. I’m picturing bean bags and fancy coffee machines—but maybe I’m off. Whatever it is, he’s pumped about the team, which is, apparently, packed with talent.

So yeah, Cast Iron Games—watch out for those guys. Maybe they’re about to shake things up. Or maybe they’ll just sip their coffee in Wakefield. Who knows.
