  Sometimes? A company that makes video games is literally called the developers of the game…… a game can’t be made without some company developing a game, they also have e developers, as well as a host of other jobs completed by other employees, like artists and programmers.

    Funny that, I don’t make games but my job title is developer or software developer and my degree is in software development. It seems to me that the employee and corporation title being the same word is a quirk of language more than anyone insisting on taking the others name. The same thing happens to some degree with consultants, architects and dentists. I don’t think either of them conspire to flip the meaning, and I know that no developer I’ve ever talked to definitely doesn’t either.
