About Us
game porting case study
about enotria: The last song
Enotria: The Last Song is a soulslike action RPG inspired by Italian folklore. Magic Media supported Jyamma Games with technical development and porting work focused on performance optimization, engine updates, and preparing the title for additional platforms while maintaining a stable gameplay experience.
our game porting support
Our team collaborated closely with Jyamma Games to optimize performance and support the transition from Unreal Engine 5.3 to 5.4. The work included modifying engine source code, integrating NVIDIA DLSS, Intel XeSS, and AMD FSR, and implementing a shader compilation system to reduce runtime stutter and improve overall stability.
The challenges
The project required identifying and resolving complex performance issues while adapting the game as Unreal Engine continued evolving during development. At the same time, the build needed to meet platform specific requirements and maintain consistent performance across different hardware configurations.
results and impact
Through close collaboration and continuous testing, the team identified issues early and implemented targeted improvements across rendering, performance, and stability. The result was a more optimized and reliable build that helped support the game’s launch across modern platforms.
Let us help you
Game porting is the process of bringing an existing game to other platforms. This is a very involved process that requires adjusting code and assets to enable games to run well on other platforms while also adhering to any other requirements depending on the game’s storefront or platform manufacturer. Games can be ported to and from any platform imaginable, though the sheer amount of work required can vary. For instance, porting a high-end AAA console game to mobile would require significant adjustments to ensure that it runs smoothly.
Game porting can greatly extend the lifecycle of a game and introduce it to new audiences. Game porting has a proven track record of taking games arguably near the end of their perceived shelf life and injecting them with newfound popularity on other platforms. This has been successful for classic games from years past, especially as these games age and become easier for systems to run, even mobile devices. Game porting projects can be successful in bridging the gap between console generations as well, with games from prior generations being enhanced and re-released for modern systems.
Game porting is similar to cross-platform development in the sense that it involves multiple platforms, but the process is entirely different. Where cross-platform projects tend to plan from the beginning that they’ll release on multiple platforms, game porting projects only occur after a game has initially been released on at least one platform. After a game launches, porting projects then take the existing game and bring it to any number of new platforms. Some games use platform-agnostic software and tools which can make any subsequent game porting projects more efficient to complete.
Magic Media provides game porting services for all platforms. We port from every platform in addition to bringing games to any platform, including consoles, PC, mobile, and even VR. We have a wealth of experience with porting projects across all platforms and understand the distinct challenges each platform faces. With our experience and skill, we can deliver ports for any platform in the most efficient way possible.
