FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions About Porting Games
Porting refers to the process of adapting a video game that was originally developed for one platform (such as a console or PC) to be able to run on another platform. This can involve re-writing parts of the game’s code and making adjustments to the game’s graphics and controls to suit the target platform. The goal of porting is to make the game available to a wider audience by allowing it to be played on different devices.
Porting a game can vary in difficulty depending on a number of factors, such as the complexity of the original game, the differences between the source and target platforms.
Porting a game from from one console to another, can be relatively straightforward, as consoles tend to use similar hardware. However, porting a game to a mobile platform can be more challenging as there is a lot of hardware variations on the market and software enviroment differ from both PC and console. The game usually needs to be redesigned in the terms of visual interfaces and gameplay, which sums up to a whole new, separate development process
Additionally, porting a game from one engine to another can be challenging, especially if the new engine has different capabilities or limitations. When the game is developed in a game engine like Unity or Unreal Engine it gets easier.
The cost of porting a game can vary greatly depending on a number of factors, including the complexity of the game, the platforms it is being ported to, and the development team doing the work. On the low end, a simple game with a small development team could cost as little as $10,000 to port to a single platform. However, more complex games with larger development teams and multiple platform releases can cost upwards of $500,000 or more. Additionally, it’s worth noting that the cost of porting a game can also vary depending on the region, as labor costs can differ greatly.
The time it takes to port a game to a console can vary greatly depending on a number of factors, including the complexity of the game, the platform it is being ported to, and the development team doing the work. A simple game with a small development team could take as little as a few weeks to port to a single console. However, more complex games with larger development teams and multiple platform releases could take several months or even a year or more to complete. Additionally, it’s worth noting that the time frame for porting a game can also depend on the readiness of the target console platform, and on the developer’s experience with the target platform. Overall, the time required to port a game to a console can be a significant undertaking, requiring a significant investment of both time and resources.
The term is likely derived from the idea of „portability”, which refers to the ability of a game or software to run on different systems or platforms. The word „port” in computer science refers to the way of connecting different hardware and software, that term was borrowed to refer to the process of adapting a game to different platforms.
