About Chop Chop Games

We are a robust and experienced team located in Aarhus C, but oftentimes work remotely. We value creativity, open mindedness, and making a tight community within the company and great opportunities to mingle with other game developers in the area.

We focus on fun and innovative gameplay in our games, more than anything else. The company was founded on the principle of breaking with traditional game genres and subverting people’s expectations.

Not in Aarhus? Not a problem, don’t be afraid of reaching out.

Salary

The game is fully funded and is expected to have good quality and performance. 

Depending on final team size, responsibilities and qualifications the salary is negotiable from the full development budget but it will be competitive within industry standards.

Future

Initial development phase is about a year – and then depending on the reception could increase. Apart from that, Chop Chop Games works on many different projects both in-house and external, where we could always use another hand if we’re a good match!
