Breflem Field Guide

Understanding retention metrics requires looking beyond surface-level download counts. True engagement is measured by the stickiness of the core loop and the friction introduced at critical decision points.

When evaluating portfolio candidates, we specifically analyze Day-1, Day-7, and Day-30 retention cohorts. A healthy mobile title should maintain 40% D1, 20% D7, and 10% D30 as a baseline. Our optimization pipeline focuses on reducing time-to-fun and smoothing difficulty curves.

Key Evaluation Criteria

Time-to-Fun (TTF): The duration between app launch and first meaningful player agency. We target < 15 seconds.
Session Frequency: How often users return within a 24-hour window. High frequency indicates strong loop design.
Monetization Integration: Value perception vs. friction. Pricing must feel congruent with the experience.
Asset Loading: Perceived performance. Even with high-fidelity graphics, input latency must stay sub-100ms.

Common Misconceptions

Myth

"More features automatically mean better retention."

Fact

Feature bloat increases cognitive load. We often remove mechanics to strengthen the core loop.

Glossary

Cohort Analysis: Grouping users by sign-up date to track behavior over time.
ARPU: Average Revenue Per User. Total revenue divided by user count.
Stickiness: Ratio of DAU to MAU. High stickiness = daily habit formation.

Avoid These Pitfalls

Ignoring early churn (first 3 sessions).
Over-reliance on aggressive IAP prompts.
Poor onboarding that explains mechanics instead of showing them.

Development Workflow

Our methodology is data-driven and iterative. We ship fast, measure accurately, and refine based on real user behavior, not assumptions.

1

Define & Constraint

Identify the core mechanic. Establish hard limits on memory, battery, and latency. Create the "Kill Sheet" for feature scope.

2

Select & Validate

Choose the tech stack (Unity, Native, or Hybrid). Run smoke tests on lowest-spec target devices. Validate assumptions via rapid prototyping.

3

Apply & Monitor

Integrate analytics hooks. Deploy to closed beta. Monitor session duration and drop-off points in real-time via the dashboard.

4

Refine & Scale

A/B test UI variations. Optimize asset loading. Ramp up user acquisition once KPIs hit green thresholds.

The Visual Contract

In the mobile landscape, visual fidelity is not just about graphics—it's about communication. Every shader, every particle, and every transition must serve the user's understanding of the system state.

At Breflem, we treat the UI as a first-class citizen of the game loop. We reject the "UI on top" philosophy. Instead, we build interfaces that breathe with the game world, using motion to convey causality and feedback.
