Chucklefish

Chucklefish are the developers and publishers of WarGroove. They are an independent games studio based in London, UK. They develop and publish games and provide support to other developers.
History[edit]
When Chucklefish formed in mid-2011, they were a handful of people spread across the globe with no studio experience, no funding, and an idea for a massive space game - Starbound. In April 2013, they hosted a pre-order campaign for Starbound through their own website using Humble widgets. They received an overwhelming amount of support from their community, raising over $1,000,000 towards the game's development in less than a month.
On 4 December 2013, they launched Starbound on Steam Early Access. In 2014, they were finally able to stop working out of their bedrooms and instead relocate to a central office in London, UK. Chucklefish has expanded quite a bit in the last couple of years - they have 18 full-time employees[1], but remains totally self-funded and independent.[2]
