Devolver Digital has been in the business for 10 years now, and they've published some of the most unique and interesting titles in the game industry. They've found a lot of success doing so, especially on the Switch. Wonder how the company picks titles to publisher? Devolver Digital's Andrew Parsons explains in a GamesIndustry interview.

"A lot of the time, the games we sign and our persona is a culmination of all our personalities. All of the people involved in Devolver have a say, and when you look at our output, whether it's marketing or games, most of us have an opinion about that stuff. The unique thing about Devolver is its combination of personalities. We do approach quite a lot of what we do with an emotional bent. We try to feel strongly about things, be it the industry, other people's games, our games, because if you don't feel strongly you've got nothing to share. But it does point toward a more unique perspective."
