Frequently asked questions
Is it possible to develop a game without using a game engine?
While it is technically possible to create a game from scratch without relying on a pre-built game engine, it is highly inefficient and time-consuming. Whatever makes a game function is, in essence, its engine, even if it's a very simple framework built specifically for that game.
Is it necessary to secure a publisher to release a game?
No, it is not strictly necessary to have a publisher to release a game. Independent developers and smaller studios can self-publish their games on various platforms like Steam, app stores (iOS, Android), or dedicated indie game platforms.
Do we need a studio name to publish a game?
While some popular games have been released under individual developer names, establishing a studio name is generally recommended for professionalism and branding. A studio name helps in creating a distinct identity, building recognition, and potentially attracting future projects or talent.
What makes an online multiplayer game stand out?
For an online multiplayer game to stand out and be successful, it typically needs to be easy to learn but challenging to master. Clear and simple game mechanics and objectives allow players to quickly grasp the basics, while depth and complexity encourage continuous skill development and long-term engagement.
Why is funding essential for game development, and how is it utilized?
Funding is crucial for game development primarily because it covers the costs of human resources and necessary licenses. Developing a game requires a diverse team of professionals, including programmers, artists, designers, sound engineers, and quality assurance specialists, all of whom need to be compensated.
