How Our Game Porting Process Works

We understand that requesting a custom port can seem daunting. Macgabria simplifies the process, offering a streamlined experience from initial request to final delivery. Here’s a breakdown of our workflow:

  1. Initial Consultation & Game Assessment: You submit a request detailing the game you wish to be ported. Our team conducts a preliminary assessment, evaluating the game’s engine, dependencies, and potential porting challenges. This initial assessment typically takes 1-3 business days and is free of charge.
  2. Quotation & Timeline: Based on the assessment, we provide a detailed quotation outlining the project cost and estimated completion time. The cost is determined by the complexity of the game, the amount of code modification required, and the target performance level. For simpler ports (e.g., 2D indie games), the cost can range from $500 to $1500. More complex ports (e.g., AAA titles with extensive customization) can range from $2000 to $5000+.
  3. Porting & Development: Once the quotation is accepted, our team begins the porting process. This involves disassembling the game’s code, adapting it for macOS, and implementing necessary optimizations. We maintain clear communication throughout the development process, providing regular updates and seeking your input.
  4. Testing & Quality Assurance: A dedicated QA team thoroughly tests the ported game on various Macbook models and configurations to identify and resolve any bugs or performance issues. We utilize automated testing tools combined with manual playtesting to ensure a flawless experience.
  5. Delivery & Support: Upon completion of testing, we deliver the fully ported game. We also provide ongoing support to address any questions or concerns you may have after delivery. This support is available via email, and typically includes bug fixes and minor performance enhancements.

Supported Game Genres & Platforms

Macgabria’s expertise extends across a wide spectrum of game genres and platforms. While we handle most requests, we particularly excel in the following areas:

  • RPG (Role-Playing Games): We’ve successfully ported complex RPGs like Divinity: Original Sin 2, adapting intricate game logic and ensuring smooth performance.
  • Strategy Games: From real-time strategy titles to turn-based classics, we optimize gameplay for macOS, enhancing responsiveness and AI performance. We’ve ported titles similar to Stellaris, ensuring robust multiplayer functionality.
  • Action/Adventure: We focus on delivering fast-paced, visually stunning action-adventure experiences, optimizing graphics and physics for maximum impact. Think of games akin to Death Stranding.
  • Indie Games: We are passionate about supporting independent developers and bringing their creations to a wider audience. We offer affordable porting solutions for indie games of all sizes. We’ve helped countless indie developers like “Pixel Prism Games” reach macOS players.
  • Simulation Games: We bring immersive simulation experiences to macOS, optimizing complex systems and ensuring realistic gameplay. Titles like Cities: Skylines can be successfully adapted.

Target macOS Versions

We ensure compatibility with the latest macOS versions, including:

  • macOS Sonoma (14)
  • macOS Ventura (13)
  • macOS Monterey (12)
  • macOS Big Sur (11)

We strive to maintain compatibility with older versions of macOS where feasible, but this is dependent on the specific game and its technical requirements. We always provide clear information about compatibility during the initial assessment.
