Franchise Collaboration Velan Studios has a track record of working with major partners and creating high-profile console-ready titles, including Star Fox collaborations for Nintendo. Position this as a co-development or IP integration opportunity, offering our studio’s veteran team and proprietary Viper engine for joint remakes or new titles aligned with Nintendo platforms and other major publishers.
Engine Expertise With specialization in Unity3D and a proprietary engine (Viper), Velan demonstrates flexibility to develop across mainstream and in-house tech stacks. Target opportunities that leverage their engine capabilities for optimization, platform-specific performance work, or engine licensing/adaption projects for partners seeking technical efficiency and storytelling impact.
Diversified Portfolio The company has released VR experiences (Bounce Arcade), social/party features (Guest Pass), and live-service titles (Knockout City), indicating strength in multiplayer, live ops, and cross-genre development. Market to potential clients seeking robust multiplayer ecosystems, VR/AR experiences, or social play integrations across PC, console, and headset platforms.
Strategic Revitalization Recent headcount reductions suggest a tighter budget but also a focus on critical projects and partnerships after past contract disruption. Business development can present scalable, cost-efficient collaborations, managed outsourcing, or co-development deals that minimize risk while continuing growth in core franchises and new IP testing.
Geographic Advantage Based in Troy, New York, Velan operates within a strong regional gaming cluster and has a demonstrated ability to pivot toward major publisher partnerships. Leverage regional incentives, talent pools, and proximity to North American publishing ecosystems to pitch joint venture, porting, or expansion projects that benefit from local cost efficiency and time-to-market advantages.
