Cryptic Studios cuts legacy game build time from 2 hours to 15 minutes with Incredibuild

Cryptic Studios, an industry-leading game developer, faced the challenge of extremely slow build times that hindered rapid iteration for both its custom game engine and server architecture. To expedite their compilation process, especially as they expanded to console development, they turned to the vendor Incredibuild and its build acceleration platform.

By implementing Incredibuild, Cryptic Studios distributed workloads across multiple machines to accelerate builds. The solution was deeply integrated, reducing legacy game build times from 2 hours to just 15 minutes, an 87.5% reduction. Incredibuild saved an average of 2-3 hours per developer, significantly boosting productivity and creativity across the entire organization.
