Thanks. Since no company is registered under that address I'd bet there simply is no company and the guy is just a sole trader under the name Six Ace Games. No official registration needed for that, you just have to report the income to HMRC (taxman) and that's it.

I guess I'm skeptical one person could make that many games? Plus, again, there's claims of 15+ employees elsewhere.

I think we both agree that this whole thing is shady af.

It’s perfectly possible to have employees or subcontractors as a sole trader…
