Our characters feature in products from these companies - and many others.

“Slide are always the first people we talk to when it comes to characters. The company brings with them an unequalled understanding of what our Studio needs.

“The work they do is sophisticated & professional and as character specialists, with a broad range of clients, they bring with them a breadth of experience and technical knowledge that we haven’t found in any other partner

“They are flexible and able to provide real solutions that work within our pipelines and budgets and their enthusiasm for both the creative side of the process and the technical details means they really are a 'total solution' for putting great characters into our games.”
