Director
Fireproof Studios

Barry’s career started in Dublin, Ireland in 1992 working on health related ‘edutainment’ titles for SNES, Amiga, and PC. In early 1994 he moved to the UK to join Bullfrog Productions where he spent his time as a lead designer and artist/animator on titles such as Magic Carpet 1 & 2, Syndicate Wars, Dungeon Keeper, and many others.

Over the next eight years Barry worked for various studios as a game designer before being hired as a character artist by Criterion Studios in 2004 working on BLACK and subsequently Burnouts 3, 4, and Paradise. In 2008 Barry and five friends left Criterion to form a small contract-art team, Fireproof Studios. After many years of saving money, Fireproof released their first game The Room in 2012 which went on to be #1 in over 60 countries.
