Q: What are the benefits to working with Octagon
to create my game?
A: Octagon creates the optimal game for your requirements
at a lower cost and on schedule.
Q: We are creating a game based on a licensed property.
Can Octagon work in that environment?
A: Definitely, we have worked with many top properties and
have relationships with licensors throughout the world.
Our team will
ensure the approval process moves smoothly and does not
unnecessarily delay the release of your game.
Q: How many games has Octagon recently completed?
A: Octagon has finished or is in the final stage of completing
nine projects to include four DS titles, three PS2 titles
and two PC games.
Q: What if we already have an in-house producer and
testing staff?
A: During the first phase of the project, Octagon assesses
your needs to see how much support you wish to provide
and how much project management is needed from Octagon.
Octagon’s proposal will be based on providing the appropriate
level of support for an on-schedule, high quality project.
Q: How can Octagon provide development services at
a lower price than most traditional game developers?
A: Octagon’s relationship with over 1,500 contractors
matches the required technologies and competencies to each
client’s varied needs. Rather than recreating the wheel,
we create a team of proven contractors and leverage their
genre and platform expertise to improve existing technology.
Additionally, many of our contractors are located in
low cost regions (Eastern Europe and Asia), where overhead
is significantly less than that of a typical U.S. or west
European development team.
