Projects we’ve Brought to life

Seventeen Tik Tok productions. What each one is, and which part of the pipeline we owned.

#Why choose us

Why us

Three checks before anyone talks budget: who is on the build, what we have already submitted to the App Store, and which engine the game runs on. Each answer names what it is based on.

Evidence 01

We create games which embrace TikTok’s short-form, highly visual, and fast-paced content style.

Evidence 02

We focus on engagement: we design to encourage user interaction.

Evidence 03

Our games are optimized for virality: creative in-game challenges that are easy to replicate can maximize reach.

Evidence 04

By embedding logos or thematic visuals into the games in order to enhance brand visibility without feeling intrusive.

Evidence 05

We utilize advanced tech, like AR effects.

Evidence 06

We test and adapt the games, using TikTok’s analytics to monitor performance and adjust game mechanics.

How We Work

Every stage ends with something in your hands, and with a date you can hold us to.

#Features

Features

Four areas that decide how a Tik Tok build feels in the hand, not just what it contains.

Engagement
01

Engagement

Games designed for easy sharing and user engagement to keep users coming back. The games are designed to captivate audiences quickly, encouraging reactions, and organic sharing.

Interactivity
02

Interactivity

Highly interactive and user-friendly experiences. We ensure that each game offers intuitive and rewarding interaction.

Virality
03

Virality

Optimized for TikTok algorithms to boost virality. Our games are crafted to take advantage of TikTok’s algorithm by maximizing engagement metrics such as likes, comments, and shares.

Share Booster
04

Share Booster

Built-in features for challenges and seamless sharing. Each game includes elements like user-generated challenges, duet features, and shareable achievements. This ensures players willingly share their experiences with friends.

VR/AR
05

VR/AR

Support for TikTok AR/VR effects to deliver unique, immersive experiences. We utilize TikTok’s advanced AR and VR tools to create engaging visual elements that amplify the gameplay and feel futuristic and exciting.

#Tech

Engines & tooling we ship on

We pick the stack to fit the title, not the other way around. Most shipped work runs on Unity and Unreal, with custom backends and live-ops tooling layered on top.

AI assistants for generating concepts, textures, character variations, and LODs. We use them as accelerators for senior artists, not as replacements.
