ABOUT THE DEVELOPER

Giap is a solo developer working from home on Operatives: Revolve. With a background in animation, he has worked in both the animation and game industries as a technical artist, and he has also founded a small servicing studio and has self-taught the rest of the skills needed to build a game since he was young.

Development on Operatives: Revolve began in 2023, when Giap left his job to dedicate himself fully to the game. His production experience let him concentrate on execution rather than learning, efficiently juggling concept, 3D art, animation, game design, programming, and more. Along the way, he also invested a lot of energy into recruiting partners and exploring business opportunities, although those efforts largely fell short due to his inexperience.

In early 2025, Giap secured a grant that enabled a major expansion of the game’s content. Partnering with his previously founded studio, he built and led a small team (5+-) over nine months, handling hiring, training, and day-to-day production. After the grant ended, he returned to solo development to push Operatives: Revolve toward release, while also taking on marketing, publishing, localization, and everything else needed to bring the game to players worldwide.
