Slant Six Outpaces the Competition

This weekend, a group of our hard working team members participated in the annual Vancouver Sun Run, a 10km race through our beautiful city with over 50,000 participants. Not only did we place FIRST in our division, beating out 118 other teams, but we placed tenth out of all the corporate teams that ran the race. The next time someone suggests that game developers are basement dwelling couch potatoes, perhaps you can suggest they take a look at our website. High performance game developers who can outrun you in the street. Pretty impressive don’t you think?

TGIPF! What?

Thank God Its Pastry Friday! If you’re following our blog, you might notice an inordinate number of posts about food and drink. Well, Pastry Friday is just another food-related tradition that has to be shared. Can you picture all the sugar happy pre-caffeinated game developers swarming over warm muffins and freshly sliced bagels, even daring to duel with fruit? No? Well be sure to check out our gallery of this morning’s spread!

We Heart Smoothies

: Fruity Goodness!

In celebration of our new Wellness Program, we kicked off the morning with fresh fruit smoothies. While we all love our Pastry Fridays, this is a welcome addition to the week! Wellness is already an important initiative for the staff since many of us ride bikes, run, do yoga, play on the Slant Six hockey team, or even raise our arms with a pint glass. (That does count as exercise right?). Stay tuned for more information on this program and how we’ll be incorporating healthy options (and hopefully some more smoothie mornings) into our studio.
