[GDN] What kind of interaction is there between the service and the developer? Are suggestions made on how to improve the game’s sales or how to improve the game so that it sells better?
Absolutely – one of the key things we can provide to developers is a our experience. Right from the first feedback we give we will try to advise and guide each developer in the best ways to polish and promote their games. We have an extensive Welcome Pack of documentation that we give to all new signups that brings together a wealth of information about marketing, publishing, dealing with piracy and DRM (or not if they so choose!), how to take good screenshots etc – all drawn from the huge experience that Blitz Games Studios has acquired from over 20 years developing games.
[GDN] What other support is provided for the developers?
We offer a variety of support depending on what’s needed for each title. One of the things we offer for every game is PR . The exact content of the PR and timing of it will be agreed with each developer to tie in with their own promotional activity but we have a team in-house here who can advise and help back-up each developers’ efforts in this area.
[GDN] How many games are submitted monthly/yearly?
We get a steady stream of applications that vary from “I’ve got a great idea” right through to established developers with full games ready to go.
