Frequently asked questions
-
什麼是遊戲外包或外部開發?
遊戲外包是指遊戲工作室或發行商與外部公司合作,讓外部團隊處理開發流程的特定部分,甚至是整部遊戲的開發。遊戲工作室無需內部包辦一切,而是可以將美術製作、程式設計、遊戲設計、QA測試、在地化或音效作業等工作委託專業團隊,這已成為業界的標準做法。這種做法能讓您在需要時獲得專業人才,根據專案需求擴大或縮小團隊規模,並讓內部資源專注於核心創意方向。
-
為什麼善用外部開發合作夥伴很重要?
外部開發提供了幾個關鍵優勢,這些優勢可能決定您專案的成敗。善用外部團隊比內部開發更具成本效益,同時讓您獲得內部可能缺乏的專業知識。能夠根據需要在專案上擴編或縮減規模,是開發者尋求外部開發工作室的主要原因之一,既能掌控成長狀況又能降低風險。您也能藉此獲得嶄新的觀點,這些觀點能激發創新,並有助避免偶爾會在內部團隊中產生的創意盲點。
-
什麼是端到端遊戲開發?
端到端遊戲開發,也稱為全週期遊戲開發,是指從零開始打造電玩遊戲的完整過程。每一階段都包含在內,從構思和設計,到上市部署和售後支援。在過程中的每一階段,您都可以找Side合作,我們提供設計、美術、動畫、工程、音訊、品質保證、在地化和社群管理服務,在構思、製作和長期支援等方面都能成為助力。如果您希望有一個值得信賴的合作夥伴負責協調開發的所有方面,而不是自行管理不同專業領域的不同供應商,這種做法就特別有價值。
-
什麼是遊戲合作開發?
合作開發是指外部團隊與您的內部員工密切合作,支援您的專案進行開發。可能是將遊戲移植到特定平台、開發遊戲的UI和UX,或是從零開始完整打造出遊戲的一整個部分。在許多例子中,合作開發還超越了工程範疇:團隊可能還提供美術製作、音訊和QA支援,全都由服務供應商這邊的專門製作人管理,以確保能和客戶的內部團隊無縫接軌。 與傳統外包不同,合作開發是協作性的:外部團隊成為您工作室的延伸,採用同一套工作流程、工具和作業程序。
-
Side提供哪些遊戲服務?
Side在整個製作流程中提供全方位的遊戲開發服務。我們的核心服務包括合作開發、2D和3D素材的美術製作和動畫、音訊製作(包括配音、音樂、音效設計和後期製作)、品質保證和測試服務、全球市場在地化、在地化QA、玩家客服和社群管理。我們還提供專業服務,如語音技術資料集和各種AI驅動的解決方案。我們在14個國家擁有20多間工作室,可以根據您的專案需求擴展團隊,同時在整個開發過程中維持一致的品質標準。
-
Side與其他遊戲服務供應商有何不同?
我們全球規模結合了精緻化的服務方式以及豐富的經驗,這正是我們與眾不同之處。過去10年中,我們經手了超過2000款遊戲,包括《Baldur's Gate 3》、《電馭叛客2077》、《原神》等遊戲大作,在各類型和平台上都累積了豐富的經驗。我們「與您並肩同行」的待客理念,意味著我們會完全融入您的團隊並適應您的工作流程,為每個合作的遊戲和客戶量身訂做方法。
-
Side只接遊戲相關的委託嗎?
雖然遊戲是我們的核心專長,但我們的服務也自然延伸到遊戲以外的領域。我們的開發和QA能力包括軟體工程和 軟體測試 ,以及網路安全工作如 滲透測試 ,而我們的 資料集 團隊則與一些全球數一數二的科技大公司合作。然而,我們具備的深厚遊戲產業知識:對消費者和玩家行為、平台需求以及產業標準的了解,代表我們能為任何產業帶來遊戲業的觀點和嚴格的品質標準。
-
和外部合作夥伴建立密切關係的最佳做法有哪些?
儘早設定可衡量的目標和範圍,例如詳細的簡報和成功指標。選擇在您的遊戲類型與技術架構上擁有實績的合作夥伴,而非僅追求最低價格。投資入門培訓:向外包團隊介紹內部工具、作業程序和品牌指南。建立清晰的溝通管道和定期檢查,每週衝刺和素材審核有助於及早發現問題。最重要的是,將外包貢獻者視為團隊延伸的一部分,而不僅僅是供應商而已。信任和合作是建立成功合作夥伴關係的關鍵。
-
該如何選擇合適的遊戲服務供應商?
首先,評估對方的作品集和經驗,尤其是與您的遊戲類似的專案。 2025年XDS洞察報告 中指出,針對遊戲外部開發,作業品質是開發者和發行商在選擇外包工作室時的首要考量因素。尋找您所需領域的專家,無論是行動裝置最佳化、移植到特定平台,還是特定美術風格。檢查對方的溝通流程和專案管理能力。要求推薦信並找對方合作過的客戶,請他們分享經驗談。最後,在確定合作之前,確保對方理解您的時程、預算和創意願景。
-
我是資源有限的獨立工作室成員,這樣我還能與Side合作嗎?
當然可以!我們理解獨立工作室面臨的獨特挑戰,並提供靈活的合作模式以適應不同的預算和專案規模。我們在全球14個國家擁有超過20間工作室,代表我們通常能在保持品質的同時提供具成本效益的解決方案。許多成功的獨立遊戲都受益於策略性外包。這通常是最明智的方式,您負擔不起的全職專業人員,外包不但能讓他們的專業技能為您所用,也讓您的核心團隊得以全心投入創意願景。
