We’ve got some incredibly exciting news to share! We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve been approved for AWS Activate Founder credits! This is a massive milestone for Oriented Pain Studio and a testament to our ongoing commitment to building something truly impactful.
For those unfamiliar, AWS Activate is a program designed to help startups and early-stage businesses grow on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Specifically, the Activate Founder program is tailored for self-funded and bootstrapped startups like ours, providing essential resources to get started and scale efficiently. Getting approved means we now have even more robust resources at our fingertips to accelerate our development and bring Ancient World Online to life faster and more efficiently.
Why This Matters for Ancient World Online.
This approval is a game-changer for several reasons:
“Supercharging Our Infrastructure
AWS provides the scalable, reliable, and secure cloud infrastructure we need to grow. These credits will directly contribute to deploying and optimizing our core services, ensuring we can handle growing user traffic and expand our feature set – all while building on the same cloud that powers the world’s biggest games.”Seif el deen soliman, founder & lead developer
It’s inspiring to know that many of the world’s largest and most successful game studios, like Riot Games (League of Legends, Valorant) and Epic Games (Fortnite), extensively leverage AWS for their game backends, global server infrastructure, analytics, and even esports broadcasts. This demonstrates the immense power and reliability of the platform we’re now building on, and we’re excited to harness that same foundational strength.
Cost Efficiency for a Lean Startup: As a bootstrapped Indie Game Studio, managing costs is paramount. The AWS Activate Founder credits significantly reduce our initial infrastructure expenses, allowing us to allocate more resources towards Ancient World Online. This financial flexibility is invaluable.
Access to Expertise: Beyond the credits, AWS Activate provides access to expert technical support and a wealth of training resources. This means we can leverage AWS best practices, optimize our architecture, and innovate with confidence, knowing we have a strong support system.
Unlocking New Possibilities: With the power of AWS behind us, we’re exploring new ways to scale, innovate, and deliver richer experiences. This opens up possibilities for features and capabilities that will directly benefit our players – from smoother gameplay to exciting new systems we couldn’t have built before.
What’s Next?
This approval isn’t just about credits; it’s about validating our vision and empowering us to execute it more effectively. We’re more energized than ever to bring Ancient World Online to life and deliver a truly immersive MMORPG experience to players around the world.
We’ll be diving deep into the technical resources and leveraging these credits to build an indie MMORPG game that truly stands out.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue our journey! We’re incredibly grateful for the support and excited about what’s to come.
