Unity & Mobile Game Development in Brisbane
Brisbane’s hospitality, retail and events scene has grown quickly, and so has the competition for attention.
Bars and restaurants in Fortitude Valley and South Brisbane, suburban shopping centres and outdoor events all need ways to stand out that feel more engaging than another social post. Branded games and AR activations give people something to do, talk about and come back for, and they generate useful customer data along the way when they are designed with a clear goal in mind.
Education and training are the other big drivers. Schools, RTOs and universities across South East Queensland are using games to make learning more interactive, from early literacy apps to workplace safety simulations for the construction and engineering sectors. These projects need careful instructional design, accessibility and reporting, not just bright graphics and a points system bolted on at the end, and they often have to work on shared school or workplace devices.
We work with Brisbane clients remotely from our Melbourne studio. Because Queensland does not observe daylight saving, we schedule calls around Brisbane time all year so meetings never land at awkward hours during summer. You review progress over video, install new builds through TestFlight or Google Play testing, and give feedback that goes directly into the next sprint. The result is a predictable rhythm, with no long silences between updates.

The Challenge
These are the issues we see most often when Brisbane businesses first approach us about a game or interactive experience.
Hospitality venues in Brisbane often run one-off promotions that spike visits for a weekend and then fade. Without a game or reward loop that brings people back, the effort and spend rarely build lasting loyalty or repeat customers.
Augmented reality activations frequently look impressive in a pitch video but struggle in real conditions, such as bright Queensland sunlight, crowded spaces or patchy mobile reception. Without testing in realistic environments, the experience frustrates people instead of delighting them.
Safety and skills training for construction, engineering and health workers is often converted into a basic click-through quiz. Learners rush through it, retain little and the organisation still cannot see who understands the material or where knowledge gaps remain.
Because Brisbane stays on AEST all year, working with interstate teams during summer can mean missed meetings and late replies. Small scheduling issues add up quickly when a game has to launch before a fixed event or campaign date.
Our Approach
Our Melbourne-based team delivers Brisbane projects remotely, with a process built around regular playable builds and clear milestones.
For venues and retailers, we design reward loops that encourage repeat play and repeat visits, such as weekly challenges, collectables or leaderboards, and connect rewards to your loyalty program or point-of-sale offers wherever that is possible.
We prototype AR features early and test them in conditions that match your venue or event, accounting for lighting, space and connectivity. If a feature is unreliable, we simplify it before launch rather than hoping it holds up on the day.
For schools and training providers, we map learning outcomes to game mechanics, add meaningful feedback and progress tracking, and build reporting so educators and supervisors can see what each learner has understood, not just whether they finished.
We plan all calls and reviews around Brisbane hours year-round, share builds via TestFlight and Google Play testing, and keep a clear milestone plan so you always know what is coming next and when it will be ready to play.
What We Offer
Whether you’re an indie studio with a concept, an educator with learning goals or a brand looking to engage customers in a fresh way, we shape each project around your audience, platform and budget. Design, art and development are all handled by our local team.
Full-cycle Unity development for iOS and Android, covering casual, hyper-casual, puzzle, arcade and mid-core genres.
We prototype the core loop early so you can feel the gameplay before committing to full production, then build out levels, progression, menus and polish. The result is a smooth, responsive game optimised for a wide range of phones and tablets.
Games are a powerful way to teach, train and inform.
We work with schools, training providers, healthcare organisations and businesses to turn learning outcomes into engaging gameplay, from early-learning apps to workplace simulations. Progress tracking, accessibility and age-appropriate design are considered from the start, so the game is effective as well as fun.
Give customers a reason to spend time with your brand.
We create branded mini-games, promotional competitions, event activations and loyalty experiences that run on mobile or the web. Each one is designed around a clear marketing goal, such as capturing leads or driving store visits, and can be paired with our Social Media Marketing team for launch.
We build augmented reality games with Unity AR Foundation that place characters and objects into the real world through a phone camera, ideal for location-based play and interactive marketing.
For social experiences, we develop real-time and turn-based multiplayer features, leaderboards, friends lists and matchmaking using proven networking and backend services.
Strong visuals set a game apart in crowded app stores.
Our artists create 2D sprites, illustrations, 3D models, environments, user interfaces and character animations in a style that suits your audience, whether that’s bright and playful or sleek and stylised. We also produce app store icons, screenshots and promotional assets to support your launch.
Already have a game?
We port titles between platforms and engines, optimise performance for lower-end devices and update older Unity projects to current versions. After launch, our live ops support keeps players engaged with new levels, seasonal events, balance tweaks and content updates, guided by analytics rather than guesswork.

How We Work
No jargon, no surprises. Here’s exactly how we take you from first call to measurable growth.
We start with a free discovery call to understand your idea, audience and goals, then run a workshop to define the genre, core mechanic and scope.
We build a rough playable prototype of the core loop and refine it with you until the gameplay feels right, before committing to full production.
We plan levels, progression and monetisation, and create the art style, characters, environments and UI that bring your game’s world to life.
Our Unity developers build out the full game in milestones, sharing playable builds regularly and integrating analytics, ads and in-app purchases.
We playtest, fix bugs and optimise performance across devices, then prepare store assets and manage App Store and Google Play submission.
After launch we monitor player data and support you with updates, new content, events and balance changes to keep players engaged.
FAQ
Yes. All of our Brisbane projects are delivered remotely. We run discovery and review sessions over video, schedule them around Queensland time all year, and send playable builds directly to your phone through TestFlight and Google Play testing. You can share those builds with colleagues or test players, and their feedback flows straight into the next round of development, so nothing gets lost along the way.
Yes. We build augmented reality experiences with Unity AR Foundation that let visitors point their phone at a poster, product or location to unlock characters, information or mini-games. We test early in conditions similar to your event, including outdoor lighting and busy crowds, so the experience is reliable on the day. Web-based options are available where app downloads would be a barrier.
We do. Serious games and simulations can help workers practise hazard identification, procedures and decision-making in a safe environment. We work with your subject matter experts to keep content accurate, then design scenarios that feel relevant to the job. Progress tracking and reporting let supervisors see results, and games can run on phones, tablets or desktop computers, including shared devices on site.
Every game is quoted per project, because scope can range from a simple promotional mini-game to an ongoing loyalty experience with regular content updates. We begin with a free discovery call to understand your goals, then provide a clear quote with milestones. When the final payment is made, you receive the full source code, art assets and intellectual property, so you can extend it later.
Yes. After release we can provide live ops support, including new levels, seasonal events tied to Brisbane’s calendar, balance tweaks, bug fixes and operating system updates. We review analytics with you to understand how players are engaging and where they drop off, then prioritise improvements that make the biggest difference to retention and results. Support can be arranged as a regular monthly block or as needed.
Book a free discovery call on Queensland time. We will talk through your venue, event, campaign or learning goals and outline how we would prototype, build and launch the right game for you.
