WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. That means, nothing that relies on company information or announcements or interviews, etc. None of the references in the article meet the criteria. HighKing⁺⁺ 20:31, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Both Galleon (video game) (the only video game created by the company) and Toby Gard, the guy who formed the company, have articles. If sources can’t be found to support the company being notable either of the two other articles could be valid redirection targets.--65.93.194.2 (talk) 03:55, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to Toby Gard. The current article reads like a section of the person's biography anyway. Any information that is relevant to Galleon can be cited in the game's article too. Haleth (talk) 04:21, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
