Abstraction

Who We Are:
At Abstraction, we go beyond boundaries. We always challenge the status quo, and each other. We solve difficult problems, and don’t stop until we’ve exceeded expectations. We are always looking to explore uncharted territory. We are always transparent about what we do, and who we are.
We create our own IP, as well as co-develop and adapt other games. We started ten years ago as two people in a garden shed, and now have over fifty people across the globe, with our headquarters in a newly renovated office in Valkenswaard, in the Netherlands.
We encourage an open and collaborative atmosphere. We surround ourselves with incredibly talented people who naturally promote a culture of discovery and innovation. &nbsp;We work on many different projects simultaneously, and we value versatile people who can wear many different hats.
Some of our previous successes are&nbsp;Ark: Survival Evolved, PixARK, SNK Heroines, The King of Fighters XIV, Hotline Miami 1&2, Don’t starve, the Sexy Brutale, Broforce, and more!

Where We Are:
Valkenswaard is an idyllic upscale town, named for the falcons that live in the nearby woods. It’s situated just south of the city of Eindhoven. Eindhoven is the tech center of The Netherlands, and a thriving international city. &nbsp;It is very modern, progressive, and diverse. Small enough to explore on a bicycle, and large enough to house the country’s top technical university, a top-tier football team, and the longest bar and restaurant street in the country.&nbsp;
