Project Management for Game Devs

Free for small teams

Made for Game Developers by Game Developers

We know game development! And we know you need an elegant yet powerful and reliable tool that helps you collaborate and release your milestones on time and scope.

Who we are

Inspired by Beautiful Trading Card Games

A well designed trading card layout allows to extract a lot of information about its content at a glance. We took a lot of these clues to allow you to recognise the state of your project by just a quick look at your cards.

How cards are awesome

Codecks is the first project management tool with built-in Discord integration into its core

Next-level Discord Integration

Codecks is an order of magnitude above all project management solutions we've used before. I've used other integrated tools before, but this takes it to a whole new level.

Floating Origin Interactive

After trying pretty much all of the competitors, we settled on Codecks as the one we're most comfortable with for our varied team of ~10 artists, designers, developers and producers. The adaptive design and visual card ordering is easy to get into and perfect for keeping track of multiple projects at once. Also a big bonus: the direct feedback loop for bugs and feature requests with the developers - our wishes are being heard and responded to.

We've tried a lot of agile PM solutions in the past. With Codecks it seems like we've found our final best fit. It's lean and easy to get into. Yet it's powerful and satisfies all our needs regarding agile project management.

Chasing Carrots

If you've ever felt like falling asleep while using Jira, Trello or writing the 451st user story, this is the PJM tool for you. Elegant, responsive & more fun than shuffling sleeved cards.

Codecks is playful, easy to use and well arranged. I can manage tasks detailed enough to work efficiently but I do not lose any time on juggling with the project management software.
