People are moving in, out, and up in gaming companies, and here's the round-up.

[New staff at Steamforged]
Steamforged Games have added 14 members to their growing team, and are continuing in their efforts to upgrade their management that started with the addition of their executive chair, Simon Spalding (see "Simon Spalding Joins Steamforged Board as Executive Chair").  The hires come in the wake of the $6.5 million investment into Steamforged Games earlier this year (see "Steamforged Games Raises $6.5 Million").  Here are some of the hires:

Other positions recently filled include Graphic Designer, Copywriter, Junior Games Developer, 3D Sculptor, Customer Support Operative, and Retail Operative.

Steamforged is now operating from a new office in Trafford Park, Manchester, England. The company plans to develop eight additional games over the next 24 months.
