Creating Games That Actually Get Played
We build mobile games that don't just launch—they thrive. After watching too many brilliant concepts disappear into app store obscurity, we decided to do things differently. Every game we create is built with real players in mind, not just impressive tech demos.

What We Actually Do
Forget the buzzwords and fancy promises. Here's how we approach mobile game development—from that first spark of an idea to watching real people enjoy your game.
Game Concept & Design
We start with a simple question: will people actually want to play this? I've seen too many games fail because they were impressive to developers but boring to players. We design mechanics that are easy to learn but genuinely fun to master, then test them with real users before writing a single line of code.
Cross-Platform Development
Your game works everywhere your players are. We use proven frameworks that deliver smooth performance on both iOS and Android without the usual compromises. No more choosing between platforms or dealing with separate codebases that eat up your budget.
Performance Optimization
Nothing kills a good game like lag or crashes. We obsess over frame rates, memory usage, and battery life because we know players will delete apps that don't perform flawlessly. Every optimization decision is tested on real devices, not just the latest premium phones.
Launch Strategy
Building the game is only half the battle. We help position your game in the app stores, plan your release timing, and create the marketing materials that actually get downloads. Because what's the point of making something amazing if nobody finds it?
Why We Started Doing This
Back in 2019, I watched a brilliant indie developer spend two years creating what should have been a hit puzzle game. Beautiful graphics, clever mechanics, polished gameplay. It got maybe 200 downloads in its first month.
The problem wasn't the game—it was everything else. The store optimization was terrible, the onboarding confused players, and the monetization felt like an afterthought. Great games were failing for completely preventable reasons.
- We focus on the complete player journey, not just development
- Every decision gets tested with actual users before implementation
- Performance and user experience aren't optional extras
- We build games that players recommend to their friends
That's when we decided to approach mobile game development differently. We combine solid technical skills with real understanding of what makes players stick around and spend money.
What Our Clients Actually Say
These aren't cherry-picked testimonials. They're honest feedback from people who hired us to solve real problems with their mobile games.
"I had this match-3 game concept that three other developers couldn't get right. The gameplay felt sluggish and players kept abandoning it during the tutorial. Tryltave rebuilt the core mechanics and completely redesigned the onboarding. Now we're seeing 65% tutorial completion rates and our retention numbers actually make sense."
"Working with them felt like having a technical co-founder who actually understands the gaming market. They caught performance issues we didn't even know we had and suggested monetization strategies that tripled our revenue without making the game feel pushy. The communication was straightforward—no tech jargon, just practical solutions."
"Our racing game was crashing on older Android devices and we were losing players every day. Instead of just patching the bugs, they optimized the entire rendering pipeline. The game now runs smoothly on phones from 2018 and our crash rates dropped by 90%. They saved our launch."
How We Actually Work
No mysterious development phases or endless revisions. Here's exactly how we take your game from concept to launch, with clear milestones and realistic timelines.
Discovery & Planning
We dig into your vision, research your target audience, and create a realistic development roadmap. This isn't about selling you on features you don't need—it's about understanding what success looks like for your specific game.
Rapid Prototyping
Before building the full game, we create playable prototypes to test your core mechanics. This catches problems early when they're cheap to fix, not after months of development when changes become expensive.
Iterative Development
We build in focused sprints with regular check-ins and playable builds. You see progress every week, not just at the end. This keeps projects on track and ensures we're building exactly what you envisioned.
Testing & Launch
Comprehensive testing on real devices, store optimization, and a coordinated launch strategy. We don't just hand over the finished game—we make sure it reaches your audience and performs well from day one.
