Graeme Struthers handles day-to-day production as chief operating officer at Devolver Digital. It’s the “boring” stuff that keeps the company humming along as a major publicly traded publisher of games.

The company’s titles include Cult of the Lamb, Return to Monkey Island, Trek to Yomi, Hotline Miami, Inscryption, The Messenger, Death’s Door, Enter the Gungeon and Katana Zero. If you’re looking for a pattern there, there isn’t any, beyond an emphasis on original titles with interesting gameplay.
