Pre-production

Pre-production Pre-production is the initial phase of the development, that shapes out the future game. We develop game concept and create a framework for the game, including project plan, art concepts, and gameplay prototypes.

Concept Game concept is a high-level explanation of the future game. The document describes the story, gameplay, features, economy, and a resource allocation and timeframe of the project.

Prototype Our gameplay programmers create prototypes to demonstrate basic gameplay and key features of the upcoming game. Prototyping starts before game concept is finalized to help us test ideas on the fly and adjust concept accordingly.

Production

Game design Game designers create the detailed story, rules, and content requirements of the game. We follow flexible approach, so changes to game design are possible throughout the production phase.

Programming Game programmers evolve initial prototypes into advanced and complete game, adding features to it with every iteration. We are ready for projects of any scale: the team has certified Unity 3D developers and Unreal programmers with dozens of projects under their belts.

Art production Artists join the production process from day one. We demonstrate proven quality at all stages of art creation: storyboard & concepts, UI elements & 3D assets, photo-realistic models & animations. N-iX art collection speaks for ourselves – check out our art samples here.

Release

Focus testing We assess game development from the product point of view, and prior to Alpha & Beta releases we thoroughly test the game on its target audience, using small focus groups, and gathering their feedback.

Alpha & Beta Alpha release showcases all key gameplay features and a large chunk of gaming assets. At Beta release, the project is nearly finished and we complete game testing to ensure end-users enjoy the top-quality product.

Soft-Launch & Launch Game launch is usually split into several phases: Soft-Launch in selected markets / countries, early access, and only then — global game launch. We ensure the project smoothly goes through necessary stages and meets all deadlines, and support the marketing campaigns as the game goes live.

Post-Release

QA Professional and thorough testing is vital for creating games that are fun to play. N-iX has a robust QA team that ensures high quality standards are met at every stage of game production.

Updates (DLC) Updates largely depend on the targeted platforms. Releasing patches for console games is different for PC projects or mobile games. And online games are a completely different story. Depending on the project, N-iX Game & VR Studio assembles the right post-production team to keep your game up-and-running for its lifetime.

Live Operation Our live operation team tracks game performance and identifies ways to increase player acquisition, retention, and improve monetization: our specialists have multiple top-grossing titles behind. N-iX handles all other essential activities like community support, conflict resolution, request handling, and more.

Sound Design

The sound is an integral part of any game and media in general. Good sound and music will plunge into the game more deeply and can delay the stay in it for long hours.
