Throughout his career, the individual in question boasts an impressive track record. Notably, as the Founder and CEO of Firebrand Games, he accomplished remarkable feats. He successfully developed multiple game engines and introduced major intellectual properties derived from Disney, Pixar, and EA franchises.

During his tenure at Firebrand, he positioned his company as the premier racing studio, credited with six of the top 10 Metacritic-rated Nintendo racing games. His career is marked by skillfully managing sizable teams in diverse locations, blending his capacity to influence partners and inspire his team with his keen business sense and the ability to consistently deliver high-quality games punctually and within budget.

Commencing as a self-taught programmer, Greenshields penned four programming books, including classic titles such as “Mastering Machine Code On Your Commodore 64,” with a focus on 8-bit game development. He personally programmed 35 games, oversaw the production of hundreds more, and progressed from a lone programmer to establishing several game development studios.

We’re immensely proud of the work of our Bangalore team, and we want a member of our top team leading at the heart of its operations. We’re absolutely thrilled to welcome Mark Greenshields as the VP of our Bangalore studio. His deep-rooted experience and passion for gaming, combined with his unique ability to grow high-performing multi-disciplinary teams, is exactly what we envision for Kwalee’s expansion and continued success

As Kwalee has evolved into a publisher of games across mobile, PC, and console platforms, Greenshields’ expertise in launching and adapting successful games will be an invaluable asset to the company.
