BRING YOUR GAME TO ANY PLATFORM
Your arcade game can reach players across multiple platforms without losing the precise feel that makes it work.
BACK TO HOMEWHAT THIS DELIVERS
Your game will run consistently across the platforms you target, with input response that matches your original specifications and performance that meets player expectations.
The porting process handles the technical details of platform adaptation while keeping the gameplay feel intact. Players get the same responsive controls and smooth performance regardless of whether they're using a cabinet, console, or mobile device.
Technical Precision
Frame-perfect input handling and timing calibration across different hardware configurations.
Visual Consistency
Proper resolution scaling and display adaptation that maintains your intended visual presentation.
Performance Stability
Optimized code that delivers consistent frame rates and eliminates performance bottlenecks.
THE TECHNICAL CHALLENGES
Porting arcade games involves more than just recompiling code for a different platform. Each system has different input timing, display capabilities, and performance characteristics that affect how the game feels to play.
Input Timing Differences
Different platforms process input at different rates, which can introduce lag or responsiveness issues that change how controls feel. This affects timing-dependent gameplay and player satisfaction.
Resolution Scaling Problems
Arcade games often use specific resolutions and aspect ratios. Adapting to modern displays while maintaining visual clarity and proper sprite scaling requires careful technical work.
Performance Variations
Hardware differences between platforms can cause frame rate drops, audio sync issues, or other performance problems that weren't present in the original version.
These technical issues can delay your launch schedule and require extensive testing to identify and fix. Without proper porting experience, you might spend weeks troubleshooting platform-specific problems instead of reaching your target audience.
OUR PORTING APPROACH
We handle platform adaptation through systematic testing and calibration, addressing input timing, visual presentation, and performance optimization for each target platform.
Input System Adaptation
We calibrate input response for each platform, adjusting timing buffers and polling rates to match your original gameplay feel. This includes controller mapping, touch interface design for mobile platforms, and keyboard configuration for PC ports.
The result is consistent control response across all target platforms, so players get the same responsive experience regardless of their hardware.
Display Optimization
We implement proper scaling algorithms and aspect ratio handling to maintain visual quality across different screen sizes and resolutions. This includes sprite scaling, UI adaptation, and viewport management.
Your game looks sharp and properly proportioned on everything from mobile screens to large displays, with no distortion or clarity loss.
Performance Tuning
We profile your game on each target platform, identify performance bottlenecks, and implement optimizations that maintain consistent frame rates and audio synchronization.
The technical improvements happen behind the scenes, so players just experience smooth, reliable performance without thinking about the complexity involved.
THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
The porting process follows a structured approach that addresses technical requirements while keeping you informed of progress at each stage.
Initial Assessment
We review your game's technical requirements, identify potential compatibility issues, and create a detailed porting plan for each target platform.
Platform Adaptation
We implement platform-specific code, adjust input handling, configure display settings, and optimize performance for each target system.
Testing and Calibration
We run extensive tests to verify input response, check visual presentation, measure performance metrics, and fine-tune settings based on results.
Delivery and Documentation
You receive the ported versions with comprehensive documentation covering platform-specific features, control schemes, and technical specifications.
Throughout the process, you'll receive regular updates on progress, test builds for review, and technical reports showing performance metrics and compatibility results.
INVESTMENT DETAILS
Arcade Game Porting & Optimization
This investment covers the complete technical process of adapting your arcade game for modern platforms while maintaining its authentic gameplay feel.
What's Included
Value Beyond Technical Work
This service saves you months of development time and eliminates the trial-and-error process of learning platform-specific requirements. Instead of dealing with compatibility issues and performance problems, you can focus on marketing and player acquisition.
The technical foundation we provide means your game reaches players faster, with fewer post-launch issues and better player satisfaction scores.
HOW WE MEASURE SUCCESS
Our porting process includes specific metrics and testing protocols to verify that your game meets technical requirements on each platform.
Input Response Testing
We measure input latency across platforms and calibrate timing to match your original specifications, typically achieving input response within 2-3 frames of the source version.
Verification includes frame-by-frame analysis and player testing to confirm controls feel responsive and accurate.
Performance Benchmarks
We profile frame rates, memory usage, and load times on each target platform, aiming for stable 60fps performance and load times under 3 seconds.
Testing covers different hardware configurations to ensure consistent performance across the expected player base.
Visual Quality Checks
We verify proper scaling, aspect ratio handling, and visual clarity across different screen sizes and resolutions, maintaining sprite definition and UI readability.
Each platform receives specific attention to its display characteristics and player viewing distance.
Compatibility Verification
We test on multiple hardware configurations for each platform, documenting compatibility and identifying any edge cases that need addressing.
The testing process includes both automated checks and manual gameplay verification on real hardware.
Realistic Timeline
Most porting projects take between 6 to 10 weeks from initial assessment to final delivery, depending on the number of target platforms and complexity of the original game.
The timeline includes initial setup, platform adaptation, testing cycles, optimization passes, and final documentation. We provide weekly progress updates and test builds for your review at key milestones.
OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU
We understand that porting involves technical complexity and you need confidence that the work will meet your standards.
Technical Standards
Every ported version meets our documented performance benchmarks before delivery. If testing reveals issues that prevent the game from running properly, we address them at no additional cost.
Post-Delivery Support
We provide 30 days of technical support after delivery to address any compatibility issues or performance concerns that arise during your testing phase.
Clear Communication
You receive regular updates on development progress, test results, and any technical considerations that affect the final implementation.
No-Obligation Consultation
Before committing to the full project, we offer a detailed consultation to assess your game's requirements and provide accurate timeline and cost estimates.
Our approach reduces the uncertainty of platform porting by providing clear benchmarks, regular communication, and technical expertise you can rely on throughout the development process.
GETTING STARTED
The process of working together starts with a straightforward initial conversation where we review your game's technical requirements and discuss the target platforms.
Step 1: Initial Contact
Send us information about your game, including the current platform, target platforms, and any specific technical requirements or concerns you have. We'll respond within 24 hours to schedule a detailed discussion.
Step 2: Technical Assessment
We review your game's code, assets, and technical specifications to identify potential porting challenges and create a detailed project plan with timeline and deliverables.
Step 3: Agreement and Kickoff
Once you approve the project plan and timeline, we establish the development schedule and begin the porting work. You receive access to our project tracking system for regular updates.
There are no lengthy approval processes or complex requirements. If you have a game that needs porting and the technical details are clear, we can start working on your project within a week of the initial assessment.
