ABOUT GAME ORACLE
Why We Built Game Oracle
Thousands of new games are released on Steam every year and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to find the types of games that players are looking for, but no one is making.
Game Oracle was built to help indie game developers make sense of the huge amounts of data that Steam has to offer and see beyond immediate trends.
Instead of just delivering you the data, we wanted to offer real, actionable insights that could be turned into games, so we've developed statistical models to analyse the labels, tags, genre and description of every current and upcoming game on Steam.
The result? A truly unique map of Steam that evolves with every new game uploaded to the platform.
Our Mission
Every gamer deserves to find a game they love and every game developer deserves to make a game that is loved.
The Founders
Ross Burton, PhD
Ross is the Head of Product and Data with over seven years of experience in data science and machine learning. An avid gamer since the 90s, Ross made his first game in VB.Net when he was 17 years old and has since taught himself seven programming languages over the course of his career.
While starting his own indie game studio, Naughty Wasp, in February 2024, Ross discovered the importance of market research during development. He found that current platforms provided a lot of data to look at, but no answers. He developed Data Explorer and Game Gap to provide some answers.
Jennie Burton
Jennie is the Head of Marketing and Business Development. She has over six years of experience in marketing and communications, recently specialising in marketing strategy and digital advertising.
While founding Naughty Wasp with Ross, Jennie was struck by the support indie game developers give each other on social media and jumped at the chance to be able to support them in return. Her aim is to create a great experience for game developers so that they can create great experiences for gamers.
