Building the best team and the greatest games
We believe great games come from great people. We aim to realize the potential of the best game artists, designers, developers and creatives, all while tapping the passion and feedback of diehard fans of our games.
We want to take on challenging ideas that - when forged into reality with drive and focus - create truly powerful and unique games that are remembered forever.

2024
No More Room in Hell 2
We launched the Early Access of the co-op action horror No More Room in Hell 2 after our acquisition of fellow Toronto team Lever Games.
Our Culture
We aim to foster collaborative & flexible environments in which our creativity will thrive in! We look to find ways to cater to and best support our teammates and their particular needs as individuals.
Innovation
Today, we’re continuing to support the smash hit Chivalry 2 and our new title No More Room in Hell 2. We’re looking to grow our team – but stay collaborative, indie and agile. We’re on the hunt for new team members that share a passion for cutting edge gaming and want to help create innovative new experiences that focus on challenge and fun.
Collaboration & Agility
Each individual at Torn Banner has a huge impact on the final product that we put out. We put emphasis on being open with each other, giving/receiving critical feedback, and not letting a false sense of authority cloud our vision. The more eyes and input that we have from different disciplines and personality types, the better our releases will be.
Our HQ
Formerly a Canada Post building erected in 1912, our office is a brand new construction located in the thriving Bloorcourt neighborhood, two minutes’ walk from Ossington subway station.
• Open concept 11,000 sq ft studio
• 17’ ceilings, raised flooring system and abundant natural light
• Private rooftop patio
• Beer fridge & commercial barista machine

Bonus Structure
When our company does well, so do our employees.

Company Retreats
We like to keep a close-knit team, so once a year the whole company gets away for a retreat.
Flexible schedule
Do your best work after a sleep-in? That’s fine. We have shared “core hours” but beyond that, your schedule is up to you.
Monthly learning credit
Want to work on some new skills? That works for us.

Bagels, granola, smoothies, soft drinks… it’s on us!
