About Project
Puzzle Fight: PvP Wars emerges as a groundbreaking title that seamlessly blends casual match-3 mechanics with the strategic depth of mid-core battler gameplay. Set in the mystical realm of Rodrim, this game invites players to assemble formidable hero squads and navigate through an array of trials, combining the thrill of puzzle-solving with intense combat dynamics.
Client and Project
Our client, seeking to create a unique gaming experience, envisioned Puzzle Fight as a project that would not only captivate players with its engaging gameplay but also set new standards in game development efficiency. The project aimed to unite two distinct game genres into a cohesive, immersive experience that would appeal to a broad audience.
Challenges Faced

Tight Deadline
One of the most significant challenges was the ambitious timeline. The objective was to go from concept to launch within six months, a timeline much shorter than industry standards for a game of this complexity.

-
Genre Fusion
Blending casual match-3 mechanics with a mid-core battler system presented a unique challenge, necessitating a delicate balance to maintain the integrity and enjoyment of both gameplay styles.
-
Development Efficiency
Given the project's ambitious scope, developing a stable, high-performance game within the tight timeframe required adopting a novel approach to casual game design and development.
