Game Development: Full-Cycle Development Process and Stages

What is Game Development?

Game development is not just programming. Development includes design, testing, and launch. It is the creation of a unique game world, where each game is a separate story. Each project requires an individual approach. We could write another hundred pages about development, but we won’t waste your time. We love and know how to develop games.

Development Stages

1. Briefing

Acquaintance. Forming the project vision - the better we understand the project idea and task, the better we’ll do our job. Possible meetings in Moscow and online conferences.

2. Technical Task and Design

Technical Task (TT) is the foundation of a future game. Every game starts with an idea that turns into a project.

3. Development

Game development is not just programming. Development includes design, testing, and launch. It is the creation of a unique game world, where each game is a separate story. Each project requires an individual approach.

4. Polishing and Release

When the project is ready and can be ’touched’, a bunch of minor things appear that you want to implement to make the project more beautiful and pleasant - this is polishing. Release is publication, now gamers and clients can download the game or app and have fun.

5. Project Support

After release, everything just begins - you understand whether the project goal is achieved: how much money the game brings, how often users make purchases in the app, etc. At this stage, the project may need technical support, updates, etc.
