Fuelcast: Game.
A web app for interactive game, built with React, Django REST Framework and Python. The core loop is tuned to be fair, readable and replayable, and the build holds a smooth frame rate on the hardware players actually own.
Anonymised case study. Project names are aliases used to protect client confidentiality. The case study covers the project’s challenge, approach, technology and outcome.
The challenge.
- The client wanted a polished, replayable game users would come back to.
- Progression and difficulty had to stay readable and fair.
- It had to run smoothly on target devices.
- Session length and difficulty had to respect the player's time while still rewarding skill.
Our approach.
- Built the game with React, Django REST Framework and Python.
- Designed progression and difficulty to stay fair under pressure.
- Kept the core loop tight and replayable.
- Profiled performance to hold a smooth frame rate on target hardware.
- Playtested difficulty curves and session pacing with real players before launch.
The outcome.
- Players progress through a tight, replayable core loop.
- Difficulty stays fair and readable.
- The build runs smoothly on target devices.
- Players come back because sessions respect their time and reward their skill.

One of their strengths is quickly building out a multi-disciplinary team to work on the development and delivery of features with different technical requirements. Their support has allowed us to accelerate our development work without building an internal team. They have also worked seamlessly with other third parties both during the acquisition of Dragonfly and development of our mobile app.
