Ex-PocketGamer.biz features editor Matt Suckley joins Flaregames as junior PR manager

Former PocketGamer.biz features editor Matt Suckley has joined German publisher Flaregames as junior PR manager.

Suckley worked on this very site for nearly three years and left in July last year to pursue a career in freelance.

He’s now headed to Karlsruhe, Germany to join the team at Flaregames. In his new role, he’ll be responsible for contributing to all aspects of the company’s PR, both on the product and corporate sides.

Next step

“I’m thrilled to begin my career in PR with Flaregames, a company so full of talent and experience,” said Suckley.

“Having admired Flaregames’ work from the outside as a journalist, I now look forward to helping communicate the excitement around our upcoming games.”

Flaregames published a number of mobile titles, including Royal Revolt 2, Nonstop Knight, Nonstop Chuck Norris, Zombie Gunship Survival and others.

Last year it set up the Flare Accelerator offering funding to developers around the world. The first title announced as part of that partnership was Flick Arena.

The company has now set its sights on China following a partnership with Chinese publisher and mobile ads firm Yeahmobi to help developers get their games released in China.
