“David worked with us on a 2 month project to build a mobile game. He has shown throughout his thorough knowledge of Unity and C#. Communication was clear. And he has made himself available when we needed him most. We continue to work with him on ad hoc basis.”

Pocket Factory was a casual merge game from Mojo Games for iOS and Android. Machines generate items, players merge those items into bigger and better ones, and upgrading the machines unlocks higher tiers to merge.
Mojo Games brought the concept and asked Ocean View Games to build it. David Edgecombe developed the game in two months: the core merge gameplay, the progression and save systems, offline earnings, and the full monetisation stack of interstitial ads, in-app purchases, ad mediation and analytics.
After launch, Mojo Games kept working with us on an ad hoc basis, adding new content, fixing bugs and smoothing out problem areas in the player flow that showed up in the analytics data.
For the detail of how the game was built, from the merge loop to ad mediation and post-launch updates, read the Pocket Factory case study.
Pocket Factory is typical of the new-build work covered by our iOS and Android development service.
What the Client Said
Our Contributions
Item-Generating Machines
Machines produce items on the board. Matching items merge into bigger, more valuable ones.
Ad Mediation Across Networks
A mediation software development kit (SDK) served ads from multiple ad networks, with every network adapter, platform and SDK version working together reliably on iOS and Android.
Analytics-Driven Fixes
The analytics data showed where players got stuck or dropped out of the flow, and we fixed those points in later updates.
