What PLAYI Is

Whatever your device renders, we do it better.

PLAYI is a total system overhaul OPTIMIZED for gaming.
Ground-up design, rather than top-down.

We don't add power, or use any unique hardware. We instead change how you get to those exact same final frames.
Computers weren't designed for games; they were an afterthought, a possibility of the technology.

Think of us as turning any device into a console more powerful than the absolute MOST powerful computers.  Scaling only to be more efficient and cost effective.  

This scalability trickles down, making the end product more performant and less expensive to you.

Accessible anywhere with an internet connection.  

In your hand or on your desktop

Now imagine this with an ever-expanding library of games; with no obsolescence.
One price. Just a subscription. With many free options available.

We have the tech:

Support us and accelerate what needs to be done to bring this to you.

Who We Are

PLAYI is a dedicated community participant for making gaming both more affordable and accessible. We're ALSO pushing the boundaries of what is possible in both complexity of rendering fidelity, gameplay systems and mechanics.

We're just 2 people. Me; a solo developer and my fiancé who supports the dream. I've been working on PLAYI for just under 2 years now - it has gone through substantial revisions and iterations to make it as efficient as possible, almost obsessively, to my partner's frustration.

I think that gaming deserves the best. I started gaming when I was young, and was hooked right away. My dad and I played Alex Kidd together on the Sega. He bought me my first console for Christmas; A PS1, with MediEvil and Spyro.

I want everyone to be able to experience this, regardless of their financial situation or 'disposable' income. One of my goals is to always release a free title on Christmas. Something to look forward to, a surprise.

And it's not a pipe dream anymore, I'm working hard to make it happen. I've run the numbers, worked out the budgets. It's possible, and if supported: Inevitable.

We aren't seeking only financial support. Interaction, suggestions, questions. I've been stuck in a small room alone for 14 hours a day 7 days a week putting the system together. I will treasure any feedback. Scepticism, criticism, it's all invaluable to ensure I'm on the right path for preserving what you value from gaming.
