Gaming

Wandering through our cave you may notice our original 1980 arcade Battlezone game, the Xbox hooked to the projector, numerous consoles and handheld devices here and there. And you’re right, we like to have fun. But we like to create it too. We have tested and developed for leading gaming and game technologies groups. A while ago it was 3DFX, more recently Linden Lab, 3DO, Aspyr, HorizonGOT, and Silver Platter Software.

We fill in the pieces that you lack. We know OpenGL like the back of our hands. We can put together Macromedia Director applications on the fly. And we have the Mac and Windows engineering talent to help you overcome just about any performance roadblock or implement support for a technology when you don’t have the in-house experience.

Our QA Services rule this arena. The most common service used by gaming outfits is our milestone based testing. Hand us your product at Alpha and after about a week we will hand you back a list of the major issues that need to be resolved, and in a manner that makes it easy to reproduce. Hand it back at Beta and we’ll find the remaining ship-blocking issues. Then bring us in for the final push and we’ll tell you if your Gold Candidate is truly ready for prime time. Whether you read our well-written defects on the defect system that we host, we enter detailed defects in your system, or we send you detailed summaries via email, you will be blown away by our structured testing process and evolved communication skills.

When we’re not playing poker in the conference room or Quake in the lab, we can configure our QA lab to simulate user scenarios using real dialup, DSL, wireless, and a variety of other connection types. We have tons of Windows, Macs, Linux and other UNIX variants ready to go. We always have Pocket PC, Palm, wireless phone, and other types of handheld projects going on, but there’s room for yours too.

We’ve even worked on web-based entertainment. So give us a call and we’ll show you how working with CPS will help you meet your ship dates and quality requirements.
