## Positioning
- Specialists in online co-op, social and "friendslop" games: chaotic co-op that turns into clips, streams and invites.
- Physics-based gameplay that every player sees the same way: bumps, crashes, ball physics and vehicles.
- We sell results, not technology: games players share, stream and come back to, ready for launch day, with server costs that scale, low latency worldwide and easy upkeep.
- AI-first production: more content, faster and for less, with artists directing and finishing every piece. No AI-generated art is shipped without artist direction.

## Services
### Art
- 2D concept art: characters, karts and worlds, model sheets and turnarounds, from rough sketch to final colour.
- 3D characters: modelled, rigged and ready to animate; checked on turntables before delivery.
- 3D karts and props: from model sheet to game-ready, season after season, with variants and skins.
- 3D environments and race tracks built in Unity: layout, set dressing, props, lighting and mood, themed per season (pirate island, space, Halloween).
- Game UI and UX: menus, HUDs, matchmaking and result screens (e.g. Mystic Soccer: quick match, skill selection, results).
- Art styles: painterly 3D, toy-like 3D, illustrated 2D and cartoon 2D.
### Multiplayer
- Multiplayer game development: online games that feel great to play together, including matchmaking, private rooms and rejoin.
- Backend and live ops: accounts, progression, seasons, events and online tournaments.
- Co-op for existing games: turning a single-player game into a game for friends.
- Audits and prototypes: a written multiplayer audit in about two weeks; a playable online prototype in about six.
- Full game development, from concept to launch and live seasons.

## Games and projects
