Casual game developer plans aggressive release schedule
A new casual game studio, BeanBag Games, has been established with offices in Texas and Ontario.
The studio has been founded by two game development veterans, Steve Bergenholtz and Gary Corriveau, with Bergenholtz previously having established Sandbox Studios which he sold to EA in 2001.
Beanbag has already acquired several ‘global videogame licenses’ and is poised to release four titles this year, with over 20 licensed and original titles planned for 2008 and expansion into the console and mobile phone sectors also anticipated.
"We're looking forward to releasing a range of first-rate titles for the growing number of casual game fans around the world,” said Bergenholtz.
"Our developers are working with several high profile properties, which will allow us to hit the ground running with a series of impressive launch games.”

I have sent a link to my work and resume to beanbag studios numerous times with no reply. If they are hiring they have been hiring for a year now. Is this studio for real? no one I know has heard of it.
I would do tons of homework before thinking of applying there. I was lied to and it cost me a lot of money...
Be warned! Truth is not slander!
Steve Bergenholtz and Gary Corriveau are both shady... I speak from experience - Google either of these principals and discover for yourself. By now BeanBag has no doubt closed its doors and stiffed left several employees, suppliers and other creditors. If past history (Utopia Technologies, Sandbox Studios, now Beanbag Studios) is an indicator of future behaviour , I predict this duo will resurface again in 2016 once discharged from bankruptcy.
