11. Timeline of the Founders' Motivation Level
I have a dream, one day my game will be played by millions of
people
Woow, there is game genre called ''Hyper-casual'' and someones
ready to make me payments for producing prototypes
I am the best Gaming studio in the town, my publisher
has a special communication with me. Someday they may acquire my
studio.
We launched a game with our publisher!! We reached 10M Download
but still not reached to breakeven :S
I never make an MRR from my games but let me calculate my
company valuation including my publishers monthly payment.
My Publisher cancelled my deal, now I decided to self-publish
my hyper casual games but before this I need to raise capital with
50M $ Valuation (No any major scaled game)
I am not a student anymore, people call me ''CEO''. Now I have office
and my parents are proud of me
No any investors wants to invest in me :( It wasn't like this few years
ago I think I need to go back to my school
