About the builder

MR LORD is a solo independent based in Île-de-France, France. Background: beatmaker. First production was Khan (fitness app, 51 AI coach personas, zero to production in 2 months). MADNESS is the second proof of the AI-piloted methodology. No studio, no team, no publisher.

The franchise is built on MadnessCore — a shared Unreal Engine 5.7 plugin with 10 AAA-grade simulation systems (Reputation, Finance, Scouting, Transfers, Youth, Squad Dynamics, Media, Analytics, Board, Player Development) ticking daily across every title. Each sport layers its own ruleset on top: ball-by-ball cricket, Union 15v15 + League 13v13 rugby, 9-weight MMA, set-distribution volley, formation-based gridiron. 372,301 LOC C++ across 1,373 source files, all 14 build clean on UE 5.7.

"You're not just backing a game. You're backing the first real proof that a single person, piloting AI, can deliver what used to require a full studio."

— MR LORD, founder
