Chucklefish Limited is a British video game developer and publisher based in London.
Chucklefish is best known for developing Starbound and Wargroove, as well being the former publishers of Risk of Rain and Stardew Valley.
In 2019, Chucklefish were accused of exploiting around a dozen voluntary contributors during the development of Starbound, sometimes logging hundreds of hours with no compensation.
Many of them were teenagers at the time and stated that they felt their inexperience was exploited by company director Finn Brice.
Chucklefish stated that contributors were under no obligation to create content or put in any particular number of hours.
