When you launch a gaming start-up cost saving is of the essence, so as to avoid being accused of being frivolous with your investors’ money. Luckily for all budding entrepreneurs in the gaming sector, there has never been such a wealth of free online resources, all just a couple of mouse clicks away. Here are some the best.
Pixel prospector
For those just starting out and putting together their business plan, Pixel Prospector is the perfect manual for you to initially live and die by. Whether you want to develop a casino game designed to rake millions or a first-person shooter with ambitions of gaining a worldwide following, Pixel Prospector will show you how to go about marketing your product. It also gives an in-depth insight into how distribution functions and much more in between.
The game accessibility guidelines
Your project is up and running. You and your developers think you’re on the right path but just need a guiding hand. That’s where this web resource can really help, providing guidelines that will make any game you create more ergonomic and send playability through the roof.
Religiously use free trial periods and bonus offers
Of course, some of the very best resources out there for games developers are not free, but the majority of such paid services offer handy free trial periods, many of which can be used to an entrepreneur’s advantage.
For all your hiring and firing needs there LinkedIn’s Premium service, which you can use and abuse for thirty days without paying a cent, which should give you ample time to have assembled the team of people you want around you. HootSuite has a similar deal in place and allows you to control all your social media feeds from one place. For casino games developers you could consider the opportunity to scout the competition with the use of casino bonuses.
Seven camels
If your game is in need of some narrative drive, then you could do a lot worse than paying Seven Camels a visit. It’s a blog whose upkeep is tended to by Mark Kennedy, the man who devised the visual story lines for the smash hits that were Frozen and Tarzan. The diagrams and drawings Kennedy offers up here are worth the visit alone.
