house. RallyHere is kind of the glue. All of the piping and plumbing and the foundation and infrastructure to send those data pipelines to the right places and call the right API’s and leverage all of those tools. So really, it’s that kind of connective tissue to all of those different tools with our partners.
How closely do you work with smaller developers to get it implemented? If they need you to sit down with them and fully explain it, do you do that? Yeah, we have zero desire to onboard tens of thousands of partners and never once talk to them. Our goal is to bear hug every partner we have. We’re going to onboard them onto a very high-end, custom service. They’re going to have access to us through Slack and email and other messaging services, to ensure that they know we’re here to help them.
for things like cross-commerce, cross-play, and online matchmaking. The reason it’s taken so long is that every platform has different rules. It’s actually incredibly hard. There’s a lot to do to ensure that you’re complying with
all of the certification rules across every platform. So if you come in late on the decision for cross-play, or cross- progression, or cross-commerce. At that point it could just be that you don’t have enough time to do all of the work required for every platform to certify for all of those different cross-pieces. The great part about RallyHere is that right out of the box, we’ve already built all of the rules and stipulations and certification requirements for each platform individually, to ensure that everything moves flawlessly and you can launch on those platforms.
Obviously, this is our first year, so our first few
clients are probably getting extra care to ensure that they can get online properly with documentation. As we continue to evolve our product offering, there will be significantly more self-service features. We’ll also always be here to help and answer questions and be available to our partners. But more and more pieces will come online that they can do on their own over time.
More and more games feature cross-play, cross-progression and cross-commerce, despite online multiplayer having existed for years. Why do you think it took so long? Well, it’s not as easy as just deciding one day that you can play with your friends on any platform. There’s a significant amount of work, especially on the algorithmic front
