Qwacks is a suite of tools built for game developers to help them research, test, launch, and operate games with less overhead.
Our goal is simple: help developers spend less time building supporting infrastructure and managing fragmented workflows, and more time making their games fun.
Qwacks supports the game development journey through three core products:
DataDuck helps studios understand the market before and during development. It provides game and market intelligence across major platforms, helping teams research competing titles, genres, player reviews, trends, positioning, and commercial opportunities. Developers can use DataDuck to validate ideas, benchmark competitors, understand player sentiment, and make more informed product decisions.
Protokite helps studios test and validate their games with real players. Teams can run structured playtests and QA campaigns, manage testers, distribute or stream builds, collect gameplay sessions and feedback, identify bugs, and analyze player experience. Protokite is designed to help developers discover usability issues, gameplay problems, and player friction before launch.
Flock provides backend and LiveOps infrastructure for games. It gives developers access to common systems such as player authentication, save data, content management, segmentation, notifications, monetization, in-game stores, analytics, and player event tracking. Instead of rebuilding these systems for every title, studios can use Flock as the operational layer behind their games.
Together, Qwacks creates a connected workflow across the development lifecycle:
Research the market → Build the game → Test with players → Launch → Operate → Learn → Improve.
Qwacks can be used by indie developers, established studios, publishers, accelerators, universities, and other organizations supporting portfolios of games.
Studios can adopt each product independently or use the broader Qwacks ecosystem as their needs grow. A team might begin with DataDuck while exploring a game concept, use Protokite throughout development, and integrate Flock as the game moves toward launch and LiveOps.
Qwacks is designed specifically around game development workflows rather than adapting general-purpose software to gaming. By bringing market intelligence, playtesting, QA, analytics, backend infrastructure, and LiveOps closer together, Qwacks helps teams reduce operational complexity and build better, more sustainable games.
