Technical Game Designers
Immersive Vision. Player First.
The unsung heroes of video games? Our Design team certainly know how to craft some magical games.
From initial planning and design of core and meta gameplay, through launch and on to monetisation and Games as a Service, our team has found that sweet-spot between creative expertise, technical knowledge, and a deep understanding of player psychology, to build compelling and immersive AAA gaming experiences for our partners.
Technical & AI Design
Our Tech Designers deliver comprehensive Unreal Engine solutions spanning core gameplay systems (Blueprints, GAS, AI Behaviours/State Trees), technical infrastructure, optimization, and UI/UX. We specialize in rapid prototyping to accelerate iteration while maintaining production-quality standards throughout.
Level & Narrative Design
Our Level Designers will help bring your vision to life - seamlessly integrating with your team to work with game and narrative design, concept and level art; setup combat encounters and balance difficulty; work with audio, and quickly prove out concepts in-game during exploratory, iterative design phases.
Gameplay & Systems Design
We design game mechanics and systems at every level of granularity. From the second-to-second feel of 3Cs and combat, through the minute-to-minute core- loops and hour-to-hour progression systems of addictive gameplay, to the day-to-day meta and monetisation systems that retain players and bring in revenue.
From Vision to Validation
We tackle design from big picture to fine detail: Full GDDs, Individual Specifications, Feedback and Analyses. Our deep, varied experience and Data Science tools will ensure you smash product goals and player expectations alike. We get you from initial idea to first playable fast, and for the long haul we have the experts you need to craft robust, balanced, refined features that will wow on the global stage.
