Following the success of No Time to Explain,[2] the company began working with DoubleDutch Games on SpeedRunners. This co-development experiment proved fruitful,[3] and since March 2015, SpeedRunners has sold over 600,000 copies.[4] As a result, tinyBuild made the decision to begin publishing titles from third-party developers, starting with Not the Robots in 2013.[5] tinyBuild has continued to work with third-party studios and has published titles across Steam, iOS, Android and various video game consoles.[6][7] tinyBuild has also worked with student teams to help bring their first games to market.[8][9]
