Half Past Yellow is a small independent game development studio based in Copenhagen, Denmark. We released Time on Frog Island earlier this year and are now working on Our Next Thing
At Half Past Yellow we strongly believe that interesting, talented people will tend to make great, innovative experiences. As a small team and a tight-knit group, we generally look for someone that can bring fresh ideas to the games we make and join us in challenging each other to be better. With a strong background in rapid-prototyping and game-jamming, we strive to constantly experiment and push the boundaries of what makes games fun and engaging across all sorts of different genres and art styles.
