Winterpixel

Winterpixel Games Inc. is developing Gatherwood Grove, a large-scale multiplayer game that currently relies on an inefficient system where game world data is constantly regenerated and discarded. This project aims to build a new “persistent” storage architecture that allows the game to permanently save world data and player changes, rather than deleting them when players leave an area. By implementing this system, the intern will help Winterpixel reduce server costs and improve stability, enabling the studio to launch a high-quality, evolving game world that can support a massive global player base
