Work directly with the engineers responsible for technical decisions and delivery. Ocean View Games brings a small senior core, with trusted specialists added when your project needs additional capacity.
From code review to lead engineering
An initial technical audit led to OVG becoming the project's core engineering partner. Our work spans gameplay systems, multiplayer architecture and backend infrastructure, supporting Domi through playable alpha and continued development.
“There would be no Domi Online without their expertise.”
Architecture a creative team can build on
Working alongside GamerCat Studio, we built core Unity architecture and a content pipeline that delivers stories on demand. The project remains in development; the foundation lets the team expand its library without bundling every story into the base application.
“The game would literally not exist without them!”

The engineers responsible for your project take part in discovery, scoping, technical decisions and delivery. You can discuss constraints and trade-offs with the people implementing the work.
David and Adam form our senior Unity engineering core. The core provides technical direction throughout an engagement, with a second pair of senior eyes on larger projects. Participation and review depend on the agreed scope.
When the project needs more capacity or another discipline, we can bring in trusted contractors and specialists we have worked with before. The core retains technical leadership and accountability. Additional capacity takes planning.
Meet David, our Principal Unity Engineer, and Adam, our Lead Unity Engineer. David's earlier experience includes work as a Technical Developer on RuneScape Mobile at Jagex (2017 to 2019). That was his role before OVG.
Compare the people, responsibilities and availability in each proposal. Rates, review arrangements and delivery capacity vary between providers.
A good fit when you want to engage a particular specialist directly, for a defined task or an ongoing role. Senior freelancers can lead architecture, challenge a brief and arrange peer review.
Agree availability, review arrangements and cover for absences with the individual.
A good fit when its portfolio, disciplines and available team match your needs. A studio in the UK or overseas may offer the specialist expertise or production capacity your project requires.
Check the proposed team, direct engineering access, working-hour overlap and handover terms.
A good fit when you have sustained engineering work and want to build knowledge within your own team over the long term. It helps to have the management capacity and budget to support the role.
Plan recruitment and onboarding around the role and your actual hiring pipeline.
A good fit when you need senior Unity delivery, technical direction or support for an existing team. Our small core can lead a defined project or contribute through an ongoing engagement, with specialists added as needed.
Confirm the scope, core-team involvement, review needs and available start date with us.
For questions to ask any potential partner, read our guide to choosing a game development studio.
You need a large team available immediately. Our contractor network takes time to assemble; look for a partner with confirmed capacity for your start date.
You need a partner to lead art direction. We specialise in engineering and can work alongside your art team or a specialist partner.
Your budget does not support our published rates. We can discuss a smaller scope if that would still meet your needs.
We do not take on NSFW, real-money gambling or social casino projects, or equity-only engagements.
Tell us what you are building, where you need support and any deadlines. You will speak with the engineer who would lead the work, and we will discuss fit, availability and the next step before quoting.
Tell us what you need from a development partner, including any constraints on scope, timing or budget. We'll discuss whether OVG is the right fit.
