Today indie game publisher and developer Crytivo announced that they will be dropping their cut of the revenue on the Crytivo Store, meaning that developers will receive 100% of the profit from sales for the foreseeable future. This extends to their publishing partners, whose titles will receive the same benefits across all platforms.
“We have seen a dramatic increase in sales over the past few months due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are very grateful for the support, but we realize that there are so many people going through hardship during this time, including many indie developers. Starting today, we decided to drop our cut of the profits from sales on the Crytivo Store, Steam, and other platforms where we publish our games. We hope that this will be a huge help to our talented partners as they face some difficult months ahead. With a declining economy potentially on the horizon, we may soon see fewer sales, so we hope this gives them the boost they need to survive whatever is to come.” -Alex Koshelkov (Founder and CEO) |
