Problem
Mobile game studios often struggle to keep up with the pace of development while maintaining quality, as traditional QA testing is manual, time-consuming, and requires significant scripting expertise. This bottleneck delays releases and increases the risk of shipping builds with undetected regressions or performance issues.
Solution
Anthelion is a test automation platform designed specifically for Unity-based mobile games, enabling studios to automate their QA pipeline without writing a single line of code. The platform embeds directly into the game engine via an SDK, allowing teams to record gameplay interactions and replay them as automated tests across both Android and iOS devices. By leveraging deep engine integration rather than pixel-based hacks, Anthelion ensures reliable, repeatable test execution that catches regressions early. This approach transforms QA from a cost center into a catalyst for faster iteration, allowing developers to validate builds and ship with confidence.
Target Audience
Primary customers are mobile game developers and studios using Unity, particularly those with at least one title shipped or in development, and teams exploring whitebox QA automation without prior scripting experience.
