New chapter
Before joining Tamatem, Odeh worked at NJD Games, where he served as creative director. He was involved with the studio's work on its driving game portfolio, including KOH, Drift Toon and Hajwala Corsa 2.
In June 2026, Odeh spoke to PocketGamer.biz about NJD Games' approach to building driving games around Hajwala culture, growing international audiences and keeping players engaged through social features and regular updates.
His move brings experience from a game development studio into Tamatem's publishing operation. The company works with international developers to bring mobile games to Arabic-speaking audiences through localisation, marketing and regional distribution.
