Capable Game Development team — happy with the end result

Ben Lloyd / Program Manager | Jul 16, 2026

Overall the project was a success, though it was not without some challenges. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline.

The Game Development work has already made a noticeable difference — tasks that used to take hours now take minutes. We had to follow up a few times on smaller bug fixes after launch.

Happy to recommend them.

Project summary

ClientFirst was brought in to build the multiplayer features for our existing game. Their team handled planning, development and QA, with our product owner signing off each milestone. The engagement ran for about 9 months.

Questions & Answers

Please describe your company, your role, and the industry you operate in.
Greenfield Auto Group Ltd is a Automotive business in Bristol, UK. As Program Manager, I was responsible for this project on our side and the main contact for ClientFirst.
What specific problem or business challenge led you to hire this company?
Our team was spending too much time on manual work. The goal was to build the multiplayer features for our existing game so they could focus on customers.
What services did the company provide for your project?
Mainly Game Development. They also helped with the technical planning and a few integrations with our existing tools.
Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?
We compared three or four agencies. ClientFirst asked the best questions and had good reviews from past clients.
How clearly did the company understand your requirements and business goals?
Well. There were a couple of points we had to clarify early on, but after that they were spot on.
How was your overall experience with their communication and project management?
Communication was good overall and improved further once we settled into a routine.
Did the company deliver the project on time and within your expected budget?
Yes. The only extra cost came from features we added ourselves, and they quoted those fairly.
What tangible results or business impact have you seen since the project was completed?
We can now handle more volume without adding staff, which was the main goal.
What did you like most about working with this company?
That they were proactive — they suggested improvements instead of just doing what was asked.
Would you recommend this company to others, and would you work with them again?
Yes, I've already recommended them to a couple of people I know.

Honest advice and solid execution

Sam Doyle / Founder & CEO | Jul 15, 2026

Honestly, this was one of the smoothest projects we have run with an outside team. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark. 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.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far. We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Project summary

ClientFirst was brought in to port our game to new platforms and improve performance. The work covered requirements, design, development, testing and launch support. We worked together for around 5 months.

Good results, communication improved as the project went on

Conor O'Connor / Project Manager | Jun 10, 2026

The final product works well for us, although the process could have been smoother. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time. 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. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in.

We launched on schedule and have not had any major issues since. Their team changed one developer midway, which slowed things down for a couple of weeks.

Overall, a team we trust and plan to keep working with.

Project summary

We engaged ClientFirst to build a customer portal where clients can log in, track orders and download invoices. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. We worked together for around 5 months.

Dependable Web Development Partner for a Growing Mining & Metals Business

Sarah Tremblay / Head of Engineering | Jun 08, 2026

ClientFirst did good work for us, and we would use them again. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far. We had to follow up a few times on smaller bug fixes after launch. If you need a team that communicates well and delivers, they are a good choice.

We were very happy with how this project went. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building.
