Johnny Two Shoes
British gaming site
Johnny Two Shoes was an indie game development studio based in London, UK. Johnny Two Shoes developed online Flash games, as well as games for the iPhone/iPad platform. The studio released 17 Flash games and 2 iPhone games, winning multiple awards for their work.
Site history
In May 2007, Johnny Two Shoes was born as a portfolio for founder Joshua Scott-Slade, but the site was redesigned in July of the same year as an Adobe Flash game site with the Flash works of Joshua Scott-Slade and graphics from Sarah Jones. The site was entirely redesigned in June 2008. The newly redesigned site hosted and promoted only Johnny Two Shoes games, added a leaderboard based on a medals system, and contained a relevant blog that users could comment on. Johnnytwoshoes also created an image blog called "llllost" that uses Jing to share their works in progress with members.
In the summer of 2009, Johnny Two Shoes opened a forum for all users. This forum allowed more feedback for the developers, and the creation of a true community for the members. The forum would eventually be updated with a ratings system, full search and RSS capability, and a private Notes system.
According to the UK's Companies House, the studio was dissolved on 1 October 2019.

Why this record matters
The phrase “british gaming site” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 22, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2696462. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2019.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
