The Code Monkeys was a British software house based in Yorkshire and working mostly in the home computer market. It was one of the oldest independent developers in the UK.
The company was founded by Colin Hogg and Mark Kirkby who had previously developed several games. The Code Monkeys went on to develop games for home computers as far back as the ZX81 and video game consoles such as the Mega Drive and the original PlayStation. In January 2010 the company scaled back its development team because of "production needs and predictions" for the year ahead. The company announced on 1 February 2011 that "the Directors/Shareholders of The Code Monkeys voted to cease trading". Before the company closed, they developed games for the mobile market on iPhone and iPod Touch devices.
