Independent game studio · Shoreditch, London
We stitch worlds together, one playable patch at a time.
Dubareqo is a Shoreditch game development studio building original titles and co-development work across PC, console and mobile — from first prototype to live operations.
A decade of shipped play
How we work
From loose thread to launch day
Every project runs through four honest phases. You see playable builds early and often — no six-month silences, no surprises at the seams.
Discovery & pre-production
3–5 weeks
We pin down the pillars, target platforms and budget, then hand you a design bible and a vertical-slice plan you actually own.
Prototype & vertical slice
6–10 weeks
A playable slice proves the core loop on real hardware. We playtest it in-studio before a single production sprint begins.
Full production
8–14 months
Two-week sprints, weekly builds and a shared board. Art, code and audio come together against a milestone schedule you can see.
Launch & live operations
Ongoing
Store submission, certification, day-one patch and post-launch content. We keep the servers warm and the community heard.
What we build
Full-cycle game development
Pick the whole quilt or a single square — we scope to your studio and your stage. Prices are starting points; every quote is tailored after discovery.

Words from the people we build with
Dubareqo took our messy prototype and shipped a vertical slice in nine weeks. It got us the funding round we'd been chasing for a year.
Their netcode team rebuilt our matchmaking before a console launch. Day-one held at 90k concurrent players without a wobble.
We handed them the Switch port everyone said was impossible. It passed certification first try and runs at a locked frame rate.
The weekly builds meant no nasty surprises. I always knew exactly what my money was buying — right down to the sprint.
