Created and refined over years of product development, KERNL empowers anyone to create high quality, scalable games and add features previously out of reach.

Game makers have never had better access to:

  • Powerful game technologies

  • Productivity tools

  • Global audiences

Despite all this abundance, making multiplayer, multi-platform games still requires significant skills & resources.

  • Projects and infrastructure are time consuming to set up

  • Senior Engineering and DevOps are still requirements for most products, and not always spent on game USPs.

  • Even minimal complexity leads to workflows that are fiddly and labour intensive.
