The company was founded in 2013 and has been leading the free-to-play &#8220;hyper-casual games&#8221; ever since. In total, Voodoo&#8217;s games have been downloaded 6 billion times as of 2022.

The games usually have many standout ads which converted to very high early retentions while struggling to maintain later retentions. Our studio specialized in creating a higher layer of progressions (metas) that can be easily plugged into the cores to improve the later retentions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I contributed to the development of base building, asynchronous PvP, and room renovation metas. Here I learned to design modular systems and client-server paradigms for the asynchronous PvP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I led the hybridization of two hyper-casual games titled &#8220;Grass Reaper&#8221; and &#8220;Snow Speculator&#8221; where I managed the integration tasks and communicated them to stakeholders and other devs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":320,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-306","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-professional-projects"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1655132574689.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/306","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=306"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/306\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":322,"href":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/306\/revisions\/322"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/320"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=306"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=306"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajarnugroho.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=306"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
