Wren Games is a UK indie publisher consisting of the wife and husband team, Janice and Stu Turner. Janice is a frequent cooperative gamer and occasional solo gamer. She's the lead game designer and graphic designer of Assembly and Sensor Ghosts. Janice is also a qualified professional Project and Product Manager with most of her experience lying in high-tech, high value products. She's taken several products from an idea through to manufacture, including inventing her own technology as part of her PhD. Since the last KS, Janice decided to reduce her hours at work by 1 day per week to spend more time on designing and publishing games. Stu is an ex-teacher now turned software engineer and is the sole programmer behind our apps. He got the family started on the hobby of collecting and playing modern board games and loves to paint miniatures. Stu is also the big solo gamer amongst the two of us. He has pretty high standards for solo games and has extensively tested and helped to develop both the solo and 2-player variants for Pilfering Pandas, Assembly and Sensor Ghosts. He also has a knack for attention for detail, so if you spot any mistakes, it's his fault ;-)
