We have released a chaos map of companies that specialize in game development

Diarkis Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and CEO: Takahashi Makoto; hereinafter referred to as Diarkis), a company that develops and provides real-time communications engines, has created a chaos map of companies with strengths in game development and published it on its website ( https://8714815.hs-sites.com/gamedeveloper-chaosmap-0 ).

Planning and production background

Diarkis, a middleware provided by Diarkis Inc., is primarily targeted at domestic game publishers who plan and sell games, and development companies who develop games.

As we conduct business negotiations with these companies on a daily basis, we are also frequently asked for consultations regarding development. The most common consultation is from people looking for companies that can handle client or server-side development work, and asking us to introduce them to companies with which they can collaborate.

Game development companies are constantly thinking up innovative plans to deliver unprecedented experiences to general game users. However, when doing so, they face challenges such as not having available production lines at their collaborating development companies, or wanting to develop games using technology stacks that their collaborating partners do not have. To solve these problems, they are constantly looking for new development partner companies.

When searching for a development company, the process involves researching the company, contacting them via a contact form, and then attending a meeting. Since the inquiries are made in between busy daily work, it is not possible to find a development company quickly.

In this situation, the background to this project is that Diarkis thought that by taking advantage of its neutral position to provide a forum where companies that want to make games can meet with companies that have connections with Diarkis and can collaborate on development, it could contribute to reducing the amount of work required for both parties.

Introduction process and DL content

When connecting you, Diarkis will act as an intermediary, screen your call, and connect you free of charge.

The goal is to enable each company to focus on their respective core businesses and maximize the value they provide to game players.

When you download the Chaos Map, in addition to the Chaos Map itself, you can also download an Excel sheet with details about each company. After looking at the details of each company, if there is a company that you would like to get in touch with, please feel free to contact Diarkis.

Introducing Diarkis

Diarkis is a real-time communication engine that uses a distributed server configuration and flexibly scales servers according to changes in communication volume. The number of games that are based on online multiplayer is increasing, and in order to achieve this, there are three issues: 1) "the cost of processing multiple simultaneous connections," 2) "the burden of operating a large-scale real-time system," and 3) "ensuring connectivity." By using Diarkis, it is possible to solve these three issues, and it also  enables P2P communication in development based on cross-platform play , and cross-platform matchmaking . It also makes it possible to minimize operational costs .
