Klei is located in Vancouver, British Columbia and has developed and published games for the PC, Xbox LIVE Arcade (XBLA) and PC Online.

Klei's creative team is led by Jeffrey Agala, a long standing director for the hit television cartoon series Atomic Betty. Jeff is a published Illustrator for Penguin Books, storyboarded for Disney's Stanley, has directed and participated in dozens of other TV shows and commercials, and has more than 10 years of experience in professional animation.

Today, Jeff has built a creative department that not only builds games, but is trained in bringing a high degree of expression and quality rarely seen in video games. Klei strives to hire and train artists and animators to create content that not only looks good, but breathes personality into the products.

In 2005, Jamie Cheng self-funded Klei by selling his shares from THQ and borrowing $10,000 from his brother. He felt there was a latent demand for quality games built from passionate, small development teams, and has since created a developer-friendly environment that continues to thrive and evolve in a competitive industry.

Prior to founding Klei, Jamie was an avid AI programmer for Relic Entertainment, where he developed the AI for the platinum seller Warhammer 40,000K: Dawn of War, and The Outfit for the Xbox 360. He also co-wrote an article on Planning Systems for Game Programming Gems 5 and bewilderingly found the article in the Best of Game Programming Gems.
