Skilled Game Development Team That Understood Our Business

Bec Kelly / Chief Digital Officer | Oct 19, 2026

Our experience with Bluedog was really positive from start to finish. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far.

We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Project summary

Our company worked with Bluedog to port our game to new platforms and improve performance. They also took care of integrations with a couple of third-party tools we already used. The project took roughly 9 months from kickoff to launch.

Professional AI & Machine Learning Team, Smooth Delivery From Start to Finish

Ruby Ngata / Head of Product | Sep 12, 2026

Bluedog did good work for us, and we would use them again. When we changed our minds on a couple of features halfway through, they handled it without fuss and were clear about the impact on cost and timeline. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time.

The result looks great and performs well, and our internal team found it easy to take over. We had to follow up a few times on smaller bug fixes after launch. We would definitely work with them again.

Project summary

Bluedog was brought in to build a demand forecasting model on top of our sales data. Their team handled planning, development and QA, with our product owner signing off each milestone. Overall it was a 4-month engagement.

Chris Patel / Program Manager | Apr 17, 2026

I would rate this engagement highly on almost every front. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building.

Since launch, everything has been stable and our team has adapted to it quickly. We would definitely work with them again.
