Currently, the annual revenue of the global gaming market has exceeded 197 billion US dollars, of which casual games account for more than 15% (about 30 billion US dollars). The scale of global casual users is as high as 2.8 to 3.2 billion, and the number of global casual game developers reaches 7 to 8.5 million, including about 0.8 to 1.2 million Chinese casual game developers. This constitutes a vast blue ocean market worth billions of dollars, featuring broad space, high penetration rate, and abundant innovation vitality. Based on this enormous market opportunity and the actual needs of developers, GamePartner.AI was born.

As a leading global IP game operator, CMGE has been deeply engaged in the global gaming market for many years, establishing a mature distribution network covering key regions such as Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Japan, South Korea, Europe, America, and Russia. With substantial experience in localized operations and diverse channel resources, CMGE not only excels at publishing online games globally but has also developed a precise ability to reach multiple regions, mainstream traffic platforms, and casual gaming communities. This helps casual games quickly achieve localization and scale up commercial monetization.

Jiyi Artificial Intelligence focuses on AI technology tailored for the gaming vertical, independently developing the first specialized model for the domestic gaming industry. Paired with full-chain AI game generation technology and an intelligent content production platform, it creates a complete technical loop from creative input to game deployment, enabling high-quality, efficient, and reusable game content production. This solution is deeply compatible with the unique development logic and mass-production demands of the gaming industry.

As an AI-driven one-stop solution, GamePartner.AI emphasizes efficiency improvement, precision, rapid monetization, data-driven insights, and global reach as its core values. It accurately addresses the four major pain points faced by small and medium-sized development teams and creators: lack of manpower, funding, resources, and monetization capabilities. It provides comprehensive, all-scenario, end-to-end empowerment support for small and medium-sized teams and creators targeting the global casual gaming market with commercially viable game products.

In the market insight phase, GamePartner.AI leverages massive industry data and algorithmic models to deeply scan category opportunities, track competitor trends in real-time, and conduct precise analyses of sub-category saturation, user preferences, art style opportunities, and regional cultural differences. Data-driven insights guide developers in project initiation decisions. Additionally, it offers localized strategy recommendations for different regions, helping developers avoid homogenized competition and seize niche market advantages.

In the intelligent development phase, GamePartner.AI achieves a breakthrough in AI-powered end-to-end game development, offering one-click generation from concept to playable game, breaking down technical barriers. Developers can simply describe their ideas in natural language or upload reference videos to input their concepts. Its most groundbreaking 'video-to-game' feature allows developers to bypass complex coding or art asset creation by uploading a 20-second reference video. The AI automatically interprets gameplay rules, interaction logic, and interface layouts, generating underlying code, art assets, music, and sound effects. Leveraging its proprietary gaming industry-specific model, it directly produces a functional and editable game framework, reducing the traditional weeks- or months-long creative validation and development cycle to days or even hours. The development cost for a single commercially viable casual game can be as low as hundreds of dollars. Once generated, the game can be automatically adapted to mainstream platforms like PC, mobile, and web.

Casual Game Examples Created with GamePartner.AI

In the core commercialization phase of global distribution and monetization, GamePartner.AI focuses on incubating and selecting casual games with commercial potential, providing developers with end-to-end, one-stop commercialization support. Developers do not need to invest additional manpower or resources to build distribution and monetization systems; they only need to complete game creation through GamePartner.AI to seamlessly connect to its global distribution system. Games can be rapidly listed on major global platforms like the App Store and Google Play, enabling quality ideas to quickly access global markets.

At the same time, GamePartner.AI enables developers to effortlessly integrate into global mainstream monetization channels, connecting generated games to top-tier advertising platforms like Google Admob and AppLovin, reaching billions of casual gaming users worldwide. Based on AI technology and big data capabilities, GamePartner.AI provides full-cycle monetization support: generating high-quality advertising materials in bulk, including images, videos, and playable ads, while achieving precise ad-buying placements through big data analysis to improve ad conversion efficiency. A 24/7 data monitoring and anomaly alert system is established to drive iterative game improvements with real-time data feedback, ensuring long-term growth. A transparent financial settlement system guarantees clear transaction records, standardized global settlements, and timely secure payouts, fully supporting developers so they can focus on creativity.

GamePartner.AI focuses on building a win-win ecosystem, creating a sustainable and value-added innovative business model. The platform builds a global developer exchange community, promoting shared experiences and mutual growth through practical case sharing. In the future, the platform will open mechanisms for uploading and licensing audio, art, and gameplay concepts, allowing creators to earn ongoing revenue from original content, achieving long-term monetization from a single creation. Looking ahead, GamePartner.AI will also establish its own traffic platform based on numerous games, efficiently connecting developers with advertisers and enabling all parties in the ecosystem to share in the industry's growth dividends, forming a collaborative and mutually beneficial industrial ecosystem.

Currently, most gaming companies are primarily focused on how AI can reduce costs and improve efficiency. However, players do not care about cost reduction or efficiency improvements but instead focus on whether the games produced are fun, engaging, and meticulously crafted. Therefore, transitioning the gaming industry from 'AI-assisted' to 'AI-native,' bringing AI-native games from flashy demos to market-ready products, and achieving rapid and scalable commercialization for enjoyable casual games with commercial potential will have an even greater explosive impact on the gaming industry.

GamePartner.AI helps AI-native games truly move from demo to market

As AI technology profoundly disrupts every aspect of the gaming industry and completely reshapes production methods and business models, GamePartner.AI envisions driving change in the gaming industry through applied AI technology, providing global gamers with more high-quality casual gaming products. This aligns closely with the national '15th Five-Year Plan,' which strongly encourages 'game globalization,' and the national 'Network Publishing Science and Technology Innovation Leadership Plan,' emphasizing 'AI + content creation.'

GamePartner.AI will also establish an OPC service ecosystem dedicated to game globalization, enabling small and medium-sized game developers with ideas and capabilities to implement their creativity at extremely low cost and high efficiency while achieving global monetization. This provides a path for small teams and creators to break through in a competitive landscape, further refining the global casual gaming business loop and initiating new growth momentum in the industry through technological innovation, supporting high-quality globalization of China's gaming industry.

The official launch of GamePartner.AI will significantly assist CMGE’s overseas market strategy. The company aims to leverage GamePartner.AI to establish a sustainable and scalable supply pipeline for high-quality casual games in overseas markets, opening up new opportunities for scaled international growth.

On May 8, 2026, the GamePartner.AI platform officially began recruiting its first batch of domestic developers for platform testing. Interested developers can visit the official website to register:GamePartner.AI | Your AI Gaming Partner

During the first six months after its launch (until November 7, 2026), the GamePartner.AI platform will prioritize selecting small and medium-sized development teams and creators with experience in casual game development to jointly create successful cases of casual games in overseas markets.

During this period, GamePartner.AI will cover all computing power costs, offer developers a 40% share of gross profits, and provide substantial promotional support. The first batch of premium casual games based on the GamePartner.AI platform will begin rolling out on major global gaming platforms in May. Stay tuned! In the future, the GamePartner.AI platform will gradually expand recruitment to include casual game developers from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, and overseas regions into the ecosystem.

By using AI to reshape the industrial ecosystem, we are ushering in a new era for global casual games. GamePartner.AI aims to be the 'AI Gaming Partner,' collaborating with global casual game developers to break boundaries, unleash potential, make creativity limitless, and allow value to be shared!
