We have two games on the platform. It's pretty nice and cool, the api isn't very hard to add. Process of dealing with Google is quite long though (as you could imagine).

What was the better market in 2019? HTML5 or Mobile?
blackmoondev replied to plicatibu's topic in General Talk
Hey. Some info from us. Please note this is an info for a full catalog of our games (88 titles in total, 5 new games added in 2019). Browser Html5 games - we (team of 5) make a living out of it. Some licenses, some b2b deals, some ads. Facebook Instant Games - was super nice in 2018. In 2019 our reveue from games (old and new) is rather small. Still makes a little sense to publish new games there. Mobile games - zero. null. nada. Not a single dollar. -

We have a PC running inside the arcade with http server and https://joytokey.net/en/ - so it's super easy to run any html5 game (just need to map the joystick to keyboard and make the game be playable with the keyboard easily).

How do you guys determine the price of your HTML5 game?
blackmoondev replied to Rudi's topic in General Talk
Well, you sell the licenses for as much as you can negotiate. Of course it's much easier to sell a licesne for a well polished game, but I saw some totally shitty games go for lots of money. And then I saw people who bought those shitty games making way more money, cause the games got viral/popular/featured. Try to sell your first game. Make some contacts. Learn what are they looking for. See how your game is performing. Optimise. Have some new ideas. Make another game. Try to sell that one as well. Repeat. -

Ranking system Facebook instant games
blackmoondev replied to ACRgames's topic in Facebook Instant Games
There was an event in London where Instant Game team talked a little about this. Basically - the most important metrics are: 1. Retention 2. Virality (number of players that sent the invites to others, number of shares, percentage of the accepted invites etc.) 3. Loading times and number of players that closed the game while it was loading There's an iniital boost when launching the game, but it's quite small and only serves the purpose of feeding the algorithm with enough data. -

Honestly I have no idea what's the limit right now 😕

Hey:) Congrats on finishing the game! There are quite a lot of options for Html5 games - putting it on the store/website with ads (you can use your own website or upload to sites like kongregate.com). You can put it up on itch.io to show it to the world:) If you are interested in selling some licenses - there's a part of this forum called "Sponsor and Portals" where we discuss that in detail (you have to gather some "reputation" for this section of the forum to unlock). Good luck:)
