About the Team

Your Daily Fill is an independent game development group based in the US. We are focused on delivering fun, fully featured Action Sports games appealing to casual and core audiences. Currently, consisting of three full time developers.

Andy, John, and Todd met one another while working together at Neversoft Entertainment (RIP). At Neversoft, the team worked together on several games for the Tony Hawk Pro Skater series and the Guitar Hero series.  They departed the former Activision studio at different time periods while staying in touch throughout the years as many Neversoft developers have, due to the family-like, work hard, play hard culture prevalent at Neversoft.

In 2016, the trio ignited the idea of creating a sequel to Epic Skater as an independent mobile game developer, opting to self-publish. Epic Skater 2 would become a more realized, fully featured game. “It’s the game we wanted to make the first time around.” said Andy Gentile, “While our budget hasn’t changed, we’re able to build on the success of Epic Skater and utilize feedback from our amazing community of players to deliver a fun, free-to-play mobile skateboarding game that players will enjoy for months or years to come.”

Skateboarding games have been around for decades and have witnessed periods of growth and decline. We loved working on the Tony Hawk Pro Skater series back then and are excited to deliver that element of addictive gameplay, evolved for the mobile generation of casual and core players.
