United Coders is much more than the only dedicated PR-agency focusing on the games and multimedia industry in the Nordic region, covering Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland. The company has also specialised in Quality Assurance, more commonly known as "bug-testing".

Developing a blockbuster title today takes much more than cool graphics, excellent audio, loads of levels and fancy animations. Any product today, regardless of it being a game or multimedia product, should carefully be developed to focus on the specific target group, while still being entertaining and enjoyable to play and experience. If a game is too hard the player will stop using it, while a game that is too easy is completed too quickly.

Whether your company develops or publish games and multimedia products for the PC, PlayStation, Nintendo, Mac or X-Box, United Coders offers a unique and very affordable quality assurance. Not only do we track down those nasty bugs that need to be corrected and eliminated, we also evaluate the overall product: How does the graphics compare to similar products on the market? Is the audio synchronised correctly? Is the game too hard, too easy or plain boring? How about the controls and your documentation for the game? And how does your game perform when it comes to pure entertainment and the all-important gameplay?

Having an internal Q/A team is definitely an advantage, but is it enough? Sometimes it makes sense to let third-party specialists outside your company have a look at your product prior to release, and from a price and quality perspective, it makes very good sense to choose United Coders.

United Coders offer several types of product quality assurance, and each test is specifically tailored to suit your product. A written report is delivered after each test, and the company is geared to test any kind of game and multimedia product regardless of platform. Our Quality Assurance services also apply to hardware products and website content.
