Typical time from brief to first sprint output is 1 to 2 weeks.
Game-Ace provides dedicated PC game developers for studios shipping desktop titles to Steam and direct distribution. Engineers work in Unity and Unreal Engine, target Windows, macOS, and Linux from a shared codebase, and validate every build on a real PC matrix. Engagements run from single developer hires to full PC production teams covering engineering, performance work, and Steam submission.

Desktop builds in Unity with C# engineering, Addressables, URP or HDRP rendering, and Unity Profiler tuning matched to the target PC hardware range.
Unreal Engine PC builds with C++ and Blueprints, Nanite and Lumen configuration where the target hardware allows, and editor tooling for the in-house art team.
Windows, macOS, and Linux builds from a shared codebase, with platform-specific input handling, storefront integration, and packaging documented for each target.
Steamworks integration for achievements, cloud saves, workshop, and matchmaking. Steam submission, store metadata, and review handling are planned at the start of production.
Frame stability, memory, and load time tuning across the PC hardware range. Profiling targets minimum-spec, recommended-spec, and high-end PC configurations.
Porting from mobile or console builds to desktop, or remastering older PC titles for current engines and Steam Deck verification.
More than two decades in game development.
In-house production team across key disciplines.
Delivered across selected game genres.
PC development is a wide hardware target. The same build runs on minimum-spec laptops with integrated graphics through to enthusiast desktops with high-end GPUs, and Steam Deck adds a separate handheld profile on top. Game-Ace PC engineers profile against this hardware range during production rather than only at submission. Steam submission, store metadata, and Steam Deck verification are planned from the start so release does not become a separate scramble at the end of the production timeline.
Clients hire individual PC engineers, mixed Unity or Unreal pods, or full PC production teams on a dedicated monthly basis. Teams plug into your Jira, Git, and CI pipeline from day one of the engagement. NDA and IP transfer are signed before any repository or build pipeline access. Game-Ace can also extend the engagement with art, QA, and storefront submission capacity from the same studio when the project needs full PC pipeline coverage.
Game-Ace PC engineers ship desktop titles validated across the PC hardware range, not only on developer reference machines.
Hiring a dedicated PC game developer from Game-Ace starts from €5,000 per month for a mid-level Unity or Unreal engineer, with senior profiles usually around €6,500–€8,500 depending on seniority. Senior PC specialists with shipped Steam credits and Steam Deck verification experience are priced higher. Full PC production teams are quoted per scope.
