“Over the past fifteen years the video game business has matured, growing from a cottage industry where computer games were first shipped in plastic bags to a worldwide business where billions of dollars are at stake and initial game shipments are numbered in the millions,” said Dan Lee Rogers, founder and Chief Executive Officer of BizDev, Inc. “Unfortunately, while independent game developers have made incredible progress technically, in terms of business acumen, most lack vital information and business skills necessary to run their businesses more profitably and to negotiate the best possible terms with their publishing partners.”
Over the coming months TechRanch Roundup will feature articles that target business issues impacting independent developers most dramatically, including negotiation strategies, royalty advance strategies, the effects of non-disclosure and termination, and more. Authored by game veteran and independent game developer advocate Dan Lee Rogers (Game Developers Conference: Publishers Speak and president of BizDev, Inc.) TechRanch Roundup is a refreshing, vitally needed resource for independent game development companies.
