Platform

Cartisien designed an extensible solution that allowed indie game developers a platform for crowd-based funding

Fig.co is a funding platform created by gamers for gamers that offers reward, equity, and debt-based funding; the Fig team empowers developers and passionate fans alike to bring well-known franchises and undiscovered indie titles to market.

Clean, reusable templates that scaled well across all device types. We maintained a widely aligned aesthetic with game sites but with a framework that investors would feel at home using and trusting.

Overview of Work

One of the best things going for Fig is their success in making positive returns for investors. Capital raised is used to develop the game, games are sold, and sales revenue is shared with investors

Through development of a clean, reusable interface we were able to build a solid framework for game developers to update their game titles, investors track the velocity of the game development and potential backers to gain some visibility on where they could invest.
