“We needed a developer to take on a pre-existing web product as well as create two additional ports of our games, so we tasked Double Coconut. The team were accommodating and quick to address concerns and frequent changes. They are an extremely friendly and considerate group that showcased their depth and knowledge of web development and overcame obstacles and challenges.”
