ex-DMA Design Dev Team Gets Seed Financing for Tag Games
Two former leading lights from DMA Design (part of Rockstar North/Take Two Interactive) the company behind Grand Theft Auto and State of Emergency, have raised seed financing for their one and a half year old mobile games company in Dundee Scotland. From its PR, the company is signing mobile operators and publishers targetting that market at speed.
Tag Games Limited raised capital from Scottish technology entrepreneur Bill Dobbie (founded Iomart among other ventures in ICT/telecoms) and the Scottish Enterprise Seed Fund.
Founders are Paul Farley, managing director, Jamie Bryan, creative director, and both former DMAers, along with Robert Henning (tech director). They funded the business to this point.
The founder and former CEO of DMA Design is now heading up RealTime Worlds, the hot - it just won a couple of BAFTAs - Scottish games company funded by US VC New Enterprise Associates.
