Co-development · for game studios
FrançaisA senior game UX/UI lead and the team behind him, embedded in your production: your engine, your repository, your sprints, your NDA. Twenty years of game interfaces, from Club Penguin to MechWarrior 5.
Three ways to work together
Every engagement starts with a written scope and has one accountable lead from the first flow to the last widget.
A senior UI lead, with engineers and artists added as the scope grows, working inside your team for a milestone or a whole production.
We own the interface: flows, look development, the component library, motion and the implementation in engine, then hand it to your team.
For co-development and porting studios: specialist UI/UX capacity under your producer and your brand, when a client contract needs more UI than you have.
What we take responsibility for
UMG and CommonUI widget structure, input routing and focus, built in C++ where it matters and Blueprint where designers iterate.
Focus memory, navigation rails and console certification details. We built a plugin for it: Focusrail, on Fab.
Menus, lobby, store, inventory, settings and the HUD, readable at speed and at every resolution.
The first ten minutes designed as a flow, prototyped, and tested before they are built.
Long strings, right-to-left, font fallbacks, text size, contrast and reduced motion.
UI profiled against a frame and memory budget, with atlases and materials that fit.
Partnership stories
Each story is a role Remi held inside another studio’s production: what he owned, and what his collaborators said.
Front end for a PC mech game in Unreal Engine 4: the mech bay, contracts and mission flow, the studio’s UX style guide, and implementation alongside the UI engineers.
Owned
UX/UI on a live online action game: the quest system, crafting at the armoursmith, hunt matchmaking, the season journal and item comparison.

“Remi created an entire UX workflow and pipeline neither of which previously existed in any form at the studio … workflows that are still in use today.”
UX Director on the central gaming team: hands-on designer, advisor and director across nine of the company’s studios worldwide at once. The work belongs to those studios, so there are no screens here.
Owned
“UI, UX, illustration and implementation Remi was a one stop shop to get stuff done. Strong recommend, would hire again.”
Co-development is not new to us: Remi has worked inside co-development and agency teams at Sprung Studios, UX Magicians and Frima, alongside studio roles at Offworld, Hothead Games and DeNA.
How we plug in
NDA, access, a build and your docs. We play the game, read the specs and map where the UI risk is.
Perforce or Git, Jira or whatever you use, your branching model and code review. UI lands as changelists and pull requests.
Daily stand-ups when embedded, weekly demos always, and milestone reviews with your producers and leads.
Documented components, source files and a recorded walkthrough, so your team owns the work afterwards.

Remi leads every engagement. Named collaborators join as the scope requires, so a production can grow without onboarding a new vendor.
