Aavega Interactive joined forces with a rising star in the gaming industry – an independent game development studio renowned for its innovative and captivating puzzle games. Their latest creation, a puzzle title brimming with intrigue, was poised to take the gaming world by storm. However, a critical hurdle stood in the way – bringing their creation to life on the vast and exciting world of PlayStation® consoles.

Our Solution

To ensure a smooth launch for the studio’s upcoming puzzle title, Aavega provided comprehensive porting services for both PlayStation®4 (PS4) and PlayStation®5 (PS5) consoles. Our collaboration with the PS5 team focused on achieving two key objectives:

  • Maintaining Parity: We meticulously ensured no discrepancies existed between the PS4 and PS5 builds. This guaranteed a consistent gameplay experience across both generations of PlayStation® consoles.
  • Pre-QA Optimization: Aavega prioritized fixing the majority of bugs before submitting the builds to the Quality Assurance (QA) team. This proactive approach significantly reduced the testing time in QA, accelerating the overall deployment process.

Challenges

The project presented a tight deadline, requiring the PS4 and PS5 builds to be ready for launch within a short timeframe. Additionally, significant adjustments were necessary to prepare the game for optimal performance on both console platforms.

Impact

Aavega’s efficient porting solution enabled the game’s successful launch on both PS4 and PS5. This expanded the publisher’s reach to a vast audience of console gamers, maximizing the game’s potential player base.

How we helped

Aavega’s expertise addressed the following critical aspects:

  • API Compatibility: Several game APIs posed incompatibility issues with the PS4 platform. Aavega’s team identified and replaced these incompatible APIs with alternatives specifically designed for PS4, ensuring seamless functionality on the console.
  • Bug Resolution: Aavega collaborated closely with both the publisher and the development studio to identify and fix bugs within the PS4 and PS5 ports. This collaborative effort ensured a polished and enjoyable gaming experience for console players.

 

By providing a comprehensive porting solution and addressing the project’s specific challenges, Aavega Interactive played a pivotal role in the successful launch of the puzzle game on PlayStation® consoles.
