LIGHTWOOD GAMES - Key Persons
Chris Newman - Founder, Managing Director
Chris Newman is the founder and managing director of Lightwood. Now an accomplished game developer, he is also a database expert and has written books about MySQL and SQLite. For many years, he built online gambling software and has a reputation for making systems that are as robust as they come.
He is responsible for the server backends that drive Lightwood's games and frequently he can be found extracting a wide range of often useless statistics from the games' databases, which may or may not help to improve the games he makes.
Katherine Gordon joined Lightwood with a rich portfolio of mobile game development, having previously worked on licensed titles for the likes of Sony Entertainment and PopCap.
