Former Rare coder and Nyamyam co-founder working with Playtonic
Posted on April 17, 2016 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News
Yooka-Laylee developer Playtonic has been adding talent from Rare on a regular basis since its inception. This past week, yet another staffer from that company joined the team – at least temporarily.
Playtonic has welcomed Phil Tossell, who was the coding lead on both Star Fox Adventures and Kameo. He’s also one of the co-founders of Tengami maker Nyamyam.
Playtonic tweeted out the following:
Please tweet sweet nothings at Kameo & Starfox Adventures coding lead @nyyphil, who'll be contributing zeroes and ones to #YookaLaylee

Based on a tweet from Tossell, it sounds like he’s still on with Nyamyam:
@Rare_Gamer @nyyjen @nyamyamgames just helping them out for while with a few things.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
