Introducing Beamable LaunchPad: $2,500 in Credits to Jumpstart Your Live Game

Building a live game is harder than ever. Studios are under pressure to ship fast, operate continuously, and deliver player experiences that keep evolving. But the path from prototype to production is often slowed by one thing: backend complexity.

At Beamable, we believe that developers shouldn’t have to choose between building great gameplay and managing servers. That’s why we created Beamable LaunchPad—a new developer acceleration program that gives studios a $2,500 head start to build, launch, and scale their live games faster.

What is Beamable LaunchPad?

Beamable LaunchPad is a $2,500 credit program designed to remove the financial and technical barriers that slow game development. Whether you’re building your first live-service title or scaling a new project, LaunchPad helps you get started on Beamable’s proven backend platform with less cost and less risk.

Your credits can be applied toward the services that make the biggest impact on your roadmap:

• Laser Beam onboarding – Fast-track your backend setup with Beamable engineers configuring your core systems: Identity, Content, Analytics, and SDK integration. (Normally $5,000—now half off.)
• Implementation Support – Collaborate directly with Beamable’s co-development team to customize or extend your backend.
• Licenses – Apply credits toward Studio Tier or Pro Tier access, including dedicated support via Discord, email, or Slack.
  

Beamable LaunchPad is flexible by design—every studio can use the credits differently based on its goals, tech stack, and timeline.

Why We Built It

The reality of modern game development is that every successful live game becomes a service — and building the infrastructure to support that service can be a major drain on time, budget, and focus.

Beamable’s mission has always been to simplify that journey. LaunchPad is our way of making enterprise-grade backend tools and developer support accessible to any studio, regardless of size or funding stage.

We’ve seen studios move from prototype to production three to five times faster on Beamable than when maintaining their own backend. By combining pre-built systems, Unity and Unreal SDKs, and optional hands-on support, LaunchPad gives teams the freedom to focus on gameplay, content, and creativity—not infrastructure.

Studios shouldn’t have to choose between building great gameplay and managing servers. Beamable LaunchPad removes that trade-off. It gives developers a faster, lower-cost way to start and scale on Beamable so they can focus on what matters most—creating incredible player experiences.

Who It’s For

Beamble LaunchPad was created to make enterprise-grade live-service infrastructure available to every studio—from lean indie teams and ambitious startups to established AAA developers. Whether building a free-to-play mobile hit, a large-scale MMO, a co-op adventure, or a web3-enabled experience, LaunchPad gives studios the freedom to experiment, iterate, and scale without heavy upfront costs.

We created Beamable LaunchPad for:

• Indie and mid-sized studios that need to move fast but can’t justify hiring backend engineers.
• Teams of any size preparing for launch who want to offload setup and implementation and get to market faster.
• Developers migrating from legacy backends like PlayFab or Firebase who need a smoother transition.
• Studios building with Unity or Unreal who want Beamable’s SDKs and LiveOps tools natively integrated.
  

Simply put: If your goal is to ship faster, spend smarter, and reduce technical debt, LaunchPad is for you.

Proven Platform, Real Momentum

Beamable already powers nearly 100 live games, supports more than 11 billion API calls, and serves three million monthly active players across mobile, console, and PC.
