Mindshare Solution creates real-time VFX for games, including gameplay and ability effects, environmental atmosphere, shader-driven materials and cinematic effects. It is for game studios and interactive projects building in Unreal Engine, with effects made in Niagara and profiled to fit the performance budget of your target platform.
Typical work ranges from spell and weapon impacts to rain, fog and drifting embers, each designed to support your gameplay and art direction.
Good effects depend on context, so we work closely with your designers and artists. Timing, colour and scale are judged in the game, next to the characters and environments they belong to, not in isolation.
In Unreal Engine, we build effects with Niagara together with custom materials and shaders. Systems are set up with exposed parameters, so your team can adjust colour, size and intensity and produce variations quickly.
For cinematics, we create effects for Sequencer shots, where the camera is known and each effect can be tuned to the frame.
Effects can be one of the most expensive parts of a frame. We agree performance targets with you at the start, then profile overdraw, particle counts and shader cost as we work, so effects look right on the hardware your players actually use.
Many effects start as a quick sketch or a reference clip. We block out timing and shape first, review it with you in context, then add detail, secondary motion and polish. Where possible, effects are organised into reusable systems, so a fire, spark or magic burst can be reused across your game with small changes.
What we deliver
A proven four-step approach that turns your ideas into polished characters, worlds, games, and digital products.
We listen to your vision, review references, and agree on goals, deliverables, and technical requirements.
We explore concepts, visual directions, and prototypes so you can review the approach before full production.
We bring the work to life through art, animation, design, and development, sharing progress at agreed milestones.
We incorporate feedback, check quality and performance, and hand over agreed assets, source files, or builds with clear next steps.

Yes, we can work in your project, or in a separate project that mirrors your settings, and hand over effects with their materials and textures organised to your folder structure.
Yes, we match stylized or realistic looks by starting from your art direction and references. For a new look, we usually build one or two sample effects first, so the style is agreed before wider production.
We agree targets early and profile effects during production. Where needed, we provide lower-cost variants for less powerful platforms.
To start, we need references or concept art, the engine version, your target platforms and access to the characters or environments the effects will appear with. A short description of the gameplay timing helps too.
Yes, effect profiling and optimization is part of our VFX service. We measure the cost of existing systems and reduce it while keeping the look you approved.
