Founded by Jacques and Melanie Leemans with the aim of helping companies, big and small, to develop and publish games and interactive apps. XGameDev have been producing games, applications and interactive animations since 2010.
Over the years as we have grown with the company, we now also cater for corporate application designs and development solutions.
We do all software design, engineering and development work in house, and work with a variety of talented content creation professionals to produce 2D and 3D art, UI/UX design, voice-over/narration and audio.
XGameDev is an independent games studio for hire based in the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia.
XGameDev was formed in 2010 by me, Jacques Leemans. I am a passionate software developer, with skills in Unity, GIS, and C#. Over the years I have sharpened my skills and now am a full stack developer, with project management and consultation skills. I wanted to take my experience and assist other companies and individuals with the skills they required in development.
Through freelancing XGameDev managed to acquire a reliable name in the freelancing community for outstanding work and services provided.
In 2015 my wife, Melanie Leemans joined the team as a Game Designer, Level Designer and game developer. Melanie has just under 19 years Information Technology experience on Windows platforms and over 5 years Unity and game development experience. She gained her Certification in Digital and Interactive Games in 2018
In late 2015 the company relocated to Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia, where we have been based up until today.
