About us

Coffee Stain North is a small game developer based in Stockholm that belongs to the Coffee Stain family. Since we started in 2013, we have grown to the size of 30 and are now looking for a couple of new friends!

We take pride in making games that we ourselves would like to play, a philosophy that has led us to work on multiple kinds of games in the past, like A Story About My Uncle & the Goat Simulator franchise (click here to see what Goat Enough! is)!

Working with us means working in a relaxed and friendly environment, where we value each other and the unique qualities we all bring to the table. Being small has its perks and one of our favorite is how we all have influence over our work/culture and the games we make.

Micromanaging is not our style, so you will need to take responsibility over your own work. We want everyone to feel like they’re contributing to the end product and thrive towards always becoming better at what they do.
