Sean Murray
Hello Games
Sean Murray is a co-founder of Hello Games, a company he helped to build from a tiny indie studio of four friends, into an ambitious and uniquely successful independent development studio in just a few short years.
Coming from considerably larger companies, including EA and Criterion, Murray is a young industry veteran now focused on creating innovative artistic titles with a small creative studio.
He is best known as the creator of the innovative and multi-award winning No Man's Sky: a science fiction exploration game set in an infinite procedural universe, bursting with life, opportunity and adventure. No Man’s Sky became one of the biggest new IPs to emerge this console generation, and was praised a technical miracle, especially from a such a tiny team.
Murray is a designer and managing director, but his first love is programming, with a focus on creating new technologies that push boundaries. Together with his Hello Games team, Sean is starting to look to the horizon and beyond, to the future of gaming.

Develop always gets put in the diary. There are many reasons to be here, not just the talks, but the networking, people exchanging ideas about where the industry is right now and where it’s going to. It’s pretty essential to be here I think.
