CHARLIE WALLACE
CTO, Engineering Development

Active in the games industry since 1987, Charlie Wallace is a pioneer of software engineering. Having worked on every major console, multiple PC systems, and proprietary machinery, it's hard to say what platforms he has not been involved with. Moving into the mobile workspace at finiteMonkeys saw the creation of a sophisticated build engine that allowed cross-language ports of mobile games not by the dozens but by the hundreds. Outside of mobile porting and original hardware and software development, Charlie continues to develop new and better foundations for making great games at finiteMonkeys-- on all platforms.
