Discovery and NDA
We review the idea, pitch deck, GDD, prototype or existing build.
Production process
Game Development Process
A game project needs a visible production rhythm: clear scope, playable builds, review points, QA and ownership terms.

From Idea to Playable Build
The process changes by model, but each project needs the same foundation: scope clarity, production ownership and build-based review.
Scope and Estimate
We define platform targets, features, team composition, timeline and budget range.
Pre-Production
We prepare production plan, architecture, art direction and delivery milestones.
Production and QA
The team works in sprints, ships builds and tests quality against target devices.
Milestones We Typically Use
The exact workflow is adjusted to the project, but these milestones keep production controlled.
Technical review
We check platform, engine, backend, repository and asset constraints.
Build plan
We define milestone outputs and review points.
Release preparation
QA, optimization and platform requirements are handled before launch.
Post-launch
Support can include updates, content, LiveOps, balancing and bug fixing.

Game Development Process FAQ
Can you work with our Jira, Slack or repository?
Yes. Tooling is agreed during setup, and clients can provide their own repository or shared development environment.
How often do we see progress?
Progress is shown through milestone reports and playable builds, not only status messages.
Who owns source code?
Source code and asset ownership terms are defined in the statement of work before production starts.
