Double Eleven is a UK-based, full-service publisher and developer of interactive digital entertainment. Some of Double Eleven\xe2\x80\x99s most popular titles include the PixelJunk series (PC), Goat Simulator (Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4) and most recently working on the Xbox One, PS4 and Xbox 360 Editions of the critically acclaimed Prison Architect. We\xe2\x80\x99ve been around since 2009, with the latter half of that time spent as a publisher and developer. Once upon a time we used to be a Sony exclusive studio, and wanting to chart our own course in 2012 we decided to become independent again. We were and still are a highly technical studio so we thought rather than just look for work we could instead go out and find PC games from other studios we liked and bring them to console. We began our publishing business this way. Once we were in a good position to let our studio do what it wants to, we began looking to see which other developers we could work with to help develop their own ideas and that we could publish (as opposed to us normally licensing an IP for our studio to work on). As we grow, we\xe2\x80\x99re continuing to focus on our strong track record of development, as well as investing on taking our publishing arm from strength to strength. We have some fantastic projects in the works and continue to search for new titles and collaborations.
