Infinite Worlds


Welcome to the future of game creation systems. InfiniteWorldGCS is the most comprehensive, the most flexible and the most powerful game creation tool ever devised. It puts the power to create in the designers hands, and unifies the whole development process. When developing with InfiniteWorldsGCS the possibilities really are infinite.

"Undeniably, HydroEngine and InfiniteWorlds are both incredible pieces of technology. In fact, they're probably the first truly next-gen tool sets"
- 360Gamer Magazine

Level Editor
InfiniteWorldsGCS is more than just a level editor, it is an underlying architecture which can interface with bespoke editors tailored to individual game projects. It provides real-time visualisation on whatever target platform(s) your project requires, with immediate turn around for ideas brainstorming - design it, build it and then try it out immediately in-game and on-platform.

"In all honesty, we've never seen anything like HydroEngine, or its even more impressive InfiniteWorlds stable mate"
- 360Gamer Magazine

Asset Manager
InfiniteWorldsGCS allows for bulk asset production from key elements; with panel based mesh production providing ultimately flexibility and efficiency. Automatic detail mapping allows artists to create spectacular, varied environments which are highly optimised and incredibly flexible.

"Cutting the time from concept to actual in-game from weeks to a matter of hours cannot be underestimated. This is simply revolutionary"
- 360Gamer Magazine

Data Management
With InfiniteWorldGCS, the editor and data store are separate, providing maximum data security and automatic backups of every change to the game environment. What's more, multiple users can work in the same level at the same time, with ID tagging and full history management by ID.

QA Management
The game is the visualiser; so both internal and external QA have direct access to the full game state at any point, including on-the-fly changes (subject to access rights). An integrated QA notes system allows testers to flag issues by category directly in the editor, with an instant messaging system for communication between teams.

Infinite Worlds

"The day we visited Blade's Manchester studio, an artist produced some concept artwork for one of the rooms of the ship. After the assets are loaded onto the network, the designers then created the room in a matter of minutes, allocated the textures for each wall and before you could say 'how on earth did you manage that?' the room was running in-game and controllable by the 360 joypad"
