Hyperkinetic Studios

Hyperkinetic Studios is a consultancy of game developers that helps clients plan, build and improve apps and games. It works with teams that want an idea taken from first concept through to a finished product.

A large part of its pitch is prototyping. The studio builds a playable version early, so clients can gather player feedback, refine the design and show a working demo to potential funders.
