2023 - A Retrospective
Like 2022, the year 2023 exceeded all our expectations in growth and company development. We built even more loyal customer relationships with integrity and trust. We grew our own senior and principal level even more so that we have more leadership in the company with distributed responsibility. We are hoping to continue our growth in projects, people and profits this way even more. Our new office since 2021 serves us well:
Starfield

We helped integrating The Forge Framework into this game engine in 2019.
The Forge Framework is also used in projects that need more custom solutions like in the visualization and movie industry. Many conversations we have with hardware and software companies start around this framework. It helps us to test drivers, define API standards and -most important- ships games :-) We can "upgrade" game engines in a fraction of the time it would take to write custom code each time.

The list of most notable projects is populated with some of the most exciting and successful games and applications:
Activision Call of Duty Warzone Mobile
https://www.callofduty.com/warzonemobile
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXzs5zWK_NE
We are helping with this title now since August 2020. We added Vulkan support to the engine, Android support, made the engine more mobile friendly and work with the main hardware vendors on driver fixes and help them to improve their Vulkan support.
Hello Games No Man's Sky
https://www.nomanssky.com/
https://youtu.be/q5D55G7Ejs8?t=4949
We are helping to bring this game to macOS and iOS since November 2021. The macOS version was featured on Apple's WWDC 2022
Hypixel Studios
https://hytale.com/news/2022/7/summer-2022-development-update
Since May 2022, we are helping Hypixel to develop a new game engine with the help of The Forge Framework.
We can't wait to see the excitement this new game engine will create.
Qualcomm
https://developer.qualcomm.com/software/snapdragon-vr-sdk
Since more than 15 years we work with Qualcomm and for the last four years we are refactoring parts of the Qualcomm VR SDK. When someone develops on Qualcomm hardware new VR experiences he is using the Qualcomm VR SDK because any vendor SDK is built on top of it. We are improving this SDK with the focus on performance and quality. A major focus for this project is to ensure the SDK is compatible with the latest OpenXR specification. We also enable support of future hardware.
Meta Quest SDK Examples
This year we worked again on several projects, extending Unreal Engine and Unity integration with better Quest support.
Meta Big Box Population:ONE for Quest
http://www.populationonevr.com/
Over the last four+ years we helped several games to launch on the Oculus Quest platform. Population:ONE was the first one using the Unity game engine.
Turn 10 Forza Motorsport
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHgceB5vzhk
We are helping with Forza Motorsport since September 2021.
Bungie
We worked with Bungie on extending the Tiger engine to mobile phones.
Google Godot
https://godotengine.org/article/collaboration-with-google-forge-2023/
We improve the Vulkan run-time for the Godot engine, specifically for mobile. Google hired us to do this.
