Disruptive Interactive, a game development company, was seeking to create a unique 2D multiplayer game for iOS and Android platforms. The game, named Lohko, was envisioned as a blend of classic snake and chess games, with the added complexity of artificial intelligence (AI) and multiplayer functionality. The main challenge lay in designing a natural multiplayer experience and building a robust AI with several distinguishable difficulty levels. The AI needed to be capable of calculating probable outcomes and predicting possible scenarios, thereby increasing the game's difficulty as players improved their skills. Disruptive Interactive needed a reliable development partner to implement this high-quality solution quickly and efficiently.

Disruptive Interactive is a game development company that aims to create engaging and innovative gaming experiences. They sought to develop a unique 2D multiplayer game that combined elements of classic games with the complexity of artificial intelligence. Their vision was to create a game that would challenge players, increasing in difficulty as their skills improved. To achieve this, they needed a reliable development partner who could quickly and efficiently implement a high-quality solution. They chose N-iX for their experience and expertise in game development.

Disruptive Interactive engaged N-iX, a game development partner, to assist in building Lohko based on their prototype. The collaboration lasted for around two months, during which the teams used an agile approach to development. N-iX programmers worked closely with Disruptive Interactive to create a custom AI algorithm similar to those used in chess games. This AI was designed to calculate probable outcomes and predict possible scenarios, making the game progressively more challenging as players developed their skills. The teams also focused on creating an engaging multiplayer experience, integrating ads and purchases, and ensuring the game's excellent performance across both iOS and Android platforms.

• The collaboration between Disruptive Interactive and N-iX resulted in the successful development and launch of Lohko, a unique 2D multiplayer game with built-in AI. The game offers an engaging and intuitive gameplay experience, with the added complexity of an AI system that increases in difficulty as players improve their skills. The agile approach to development allowed for efficient project management and timely delivery, while the application of the latest game development technologies ensured excellent game performance. The successful integration of AI and the creation of an engaging multiplayer experience demonstrate the effectiveness of the partnership between Disruptive Interactive and N-iX.

• The development process was completed in around 2 months, demonstrating efficient project management.

• The game was successfully developed for both iOS and Android platforms, expanding its potential user base.
