The process
A protected path from initial fit to a scoped proposal, production, certification, and launch.
Public project details, goals, platforms, and timing.
Secure build or repository access only after fit is established.
Architecture, performance, middleware, and platform-risk review.
Engineering, optimization, hardware testing, and submissions.
Release preparation and the agreed post-launch window.
Scope and cost
After reviewing the game, we prepare a proposal that defines target platforms, milestones, responsibilities, key assumptions, technical risks, commercial structure, and a proposed schedule.
Platform support, plugins, middleware, and the state of the current project.
CPU, GPU, memory, loading, content scale, and the target hardware.
Accounts, saves, achievements, online services, input, and user flows.
Each console family adds engineering, test, certification, and release work.
Architecture, maintainability, abstraction, and existing console assumptions.
Launch timing, parallel PC development, submission rounds, and post-launch needs.
Engagement
Commercial terms are defined after assessment. Depending on the project, the work may use scoped milestones, a phased assessment and delivery, or another agreed structure.

FAQ
The decisions that usually shape a first console-porting conversation.
Still curious? Email usA stable playable build is usually enough for an initial technical conversation. The game does not need to be commercially released or completely content-final, but its core systems should represent the intended product well enough for meaningful assessment.
We review the project architecture, engine and version, performance profile, middleware, platform features, target consoles, and certification risks. The findings shape the proposed scope, milestones, responsibilities, and schedule.
The agreed scope can include requirements planning, testing on hardware, issue resolution, submission support, and coordination around certification findings. Platform-account and publisher responsibilities are defined before production starts.
