How We Work With You

Your Vision, Our Expertise, A Shared Success

At Casarecce Design, we believe the best interactive experiences are born from true collaboration and a flexible approach. We’re not just a design provider; we’re your strategic partner, dedicated to making the creation process seamless, creative, and tailored to your studio’s unique needs.

From Initial Spark to Full Blueprint

It all starts with an idea. Whether you have a nascent concept or are looking for fresh inspiration, Casarecce Design can step in. We excel at:

  • Conceptualizing Original Ideas: We can develop unique themes, mechanics, and feature sets from the ground up, presenting you with innovative starting points.
  • Developing Your Vision: If you have an initial idea, we work closely with your team to flesh it out, refine the mechanics, and build a comprehensive design document (GDD or equivalent) that captures every detail.

Flexible, À La Carte Design Services

We understand that every studio has different strengths and in-house capabilities. That’s why we offer a flexible engagement model:

  • Complete Design Packages: For studios looking for a full, turnkey design solution, we provide everything from the GDD and core system designs to all art, animation specs, and audio direction, ready for your development team.
  • Targeted Expertise: If your studio excels in certain areas (like art or audio) but needs specialized support in others (like system design or initial GDD creation), we can provide just the services you need. You choose the components that best augment your team’s skills.

A True Partnership Approach

We believe in working with you, not just for you. Casarecce Design is committed to being a cooperative and communicative partner throughout the design phase. This means:

  • Regular Communication & Iteration: We maintain an open dialogue, incorporating your feedback at key stages to ensure the design aligns perfectly with your vision and market goals.
  • Seamless Handovers: Our design packages are meticulously prepared for a smooth transition to your development team, minimizing friction and maximizing efficiency.
