Stockholm, Sweden - January 14, 2013 /GameBlast/ -
Donya Labs, creators of Simplygon™ and the leading provider
of automatic 3D-optimization solutions for the video-game industry,
today announced a new licensing agreement with British developer
Ninja Theory and game publisher Capcom for the upcoming game title
DmC Devil May Cry
™.
The action game, developed with Unreal Engine 3, is the latest
release in Capcom's flagship franchise
Devil May Cry
™ and scheduled for release on January
15
th across Europe and North America for PlayStation®3
and the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from
Microsoft with a Windows PC version to follow.
Optimization of 3D assets to reduce the amount of data that is
rendered is crucial to speed up video games and provide stable
frame rates and a smooth experience for the gamer. When adopting a
manual approach this task takes countless hours and may result in
an inconsistent outcome that may affect how well the game plays. As
one of the leading middleware solutions, and the standard for
high-quality video games needing Level of Detail optimization,
Simplygon is developed with game development in mind and answers
the call by offering to eliminate tedious and expensive manual
optimization processes.
Capcom Senior Producer for DmC, Alex Jones comments
"Late development geometry optimization is one of the most
labor intensive aspects of game development, and Simplygon allows
my team to effectively and efficiently optimize and polish far more
of the game than we would be able to otherwise, ensuring we have
large, detailed worlds that run at a consistent
framerate. It's an invaluable resource."
