8 Types of mobile game and app creatives you should tryGameCamp
Over that past three years, we have worked with around 80 apps and tested approximately 8,000 different videos. From this, we’ve been able to recognize and define the characteristics of certain types of concepts that frequently perform well. We have also seen these concepts work for specific app categories.
In this presentation, we would like to share our typology and discuss the game categories where we’ve seen these specific concepts perform particularly well. We hope this may help in building or improving the testing plan for your game and, as a consequence, achieve better results in UA.

Publishers, investors and partners: do you need them? This is a question every independent developer faces when deciding whether or not to self-publish. What do you give up and what do you get in return in each scenario? In the past the publisher was the gateway to the marketplace, but today anyone can publish a game by themselves. This talk will explore the financing and publishing options available to independent developers today, covering traditional publishers, investors, strategic partners and self-funding options such as Kickstarter. Each one offers different benefits and resources, from capital, to marketing and analytics, to strategic relationships with platform owners. This session will give you a better understanding of the modern publishing landscape and arm you with the tools to evaluate your options, ask the right questions and come to the decision that's best for your company

The Business DNA Pyramid for Game-changers: "Don't Just Improve. Change the G...Rod King, Ph.D.
There have been many world-changing organizations in the past. And there are many world-changing organizations at present. Examples of world-changing organizations include Apple, Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Twitter. But how are world-changing organizations created? How does an individual or a team move from an idea to a world-changing business?
The world of business literature is full of books providing frameworks that explain how world-changing organizations are created as well as operate. Popular frameworks and tools include the following:
* James Collins & Jerry Porras's Core Ideology-Envisioned Future Framework in their "Built To Last" book
* Simon Sinek's Golden Circle in his "Start With Why" book
* Michael Porter's Competitive Strategy in his book "Competitive Strategy"
* W. Chan Kim & Renee Mauborgne's Blue Ocean Strategy in their book, "Blue Ocean Strategy"
* A.J. Lafley & Roger L. Martin's Strategic Choice Cascade Framework in their book, "Playing to Win"
* Robert S. Kaplan & David P. Norton's Balanced Scorecard in their book, "The Balanced Scorecard"
* Alexander Osterwalder & Yves Pigneur's Business Model Canvas in their book, "Business Model Generation"
* Eric Ries's Vision-Strategy-Product (VSP) Pyramid and Build-Measure-Learn (BML) Loop in his book, "The Lean Startup"
In spite of the proliferation of tools that describe as well as predict how world-changing organizations are created, the frameworks and tools including those above hardly reference or "talk" to each other. The result is a piecemeal approach to describing and building world-changing organizations. The consequence is the high failure rate of about 90% of startups that attempt to create world-changing products, services, and/or organizations.
In contrast to previous approaches, this presentation introduces a holistic framework - Business DNA Pyramid - that features 3 game-changing DNA questions that can be used to comprehensively explain as well as build world-changing organizations starting from just an idea. Despite the simplicity and coherence of the framework of the Business DNA Pyramid, building a world-changing organization is complex in reality. However, answering the 3 DNA Questions, which involve vertical and horizontal integration of the DNA (Design; Needs; Aspirations) of an organization, would facilitate the creation of world-changing organizations.
Hopefully, the transparency, scalability, and common visual language of the Business DNA Pyramid would help entrepreneurs, startups, and established organizations to effectively and efficiently achieve their world-changing visions. And certainly, our world would be a much better and happier place.

Have you ever burnt money on unprofitable UA? Was there an opportunity to scale that you missed? Identifying potentially long-term profitable campaigns as soon as possible using LTV prediction can double or triple profits of the mobile game. In this talk, we will look at how to effectively reallocate user acquisition investments early in campaigns’ lifetime using Machine Learning. We will shed light on some of the challenges game studios face when building a fully automatic LTV prediction pipeline for games with investment optimisation in mind.
Not so trivial lessons learned from launching mid-core games.GameCamp
Key points on understanding future marketing and analytics challenges when developing ideas for your future games. We analyzed 1000 games of different genres and extracted common types of how the key metrics of apps develop after worldwide launch. We analyzed only notable games with the 1st year sum of revenue + downloads more than 2M and compared their performance during their first year. Learnings from the analysis.
What monetisation trends can we see? Based on the data and predictions Which gaming genres are getting better in monetisation, which ones are getting more challenging? Abstract of presentation shown at 7th edition of GameCamp
Transit King case study - data driven design with its benefits and challenges.GameCamp
Working on a released free to play title creates a lot of design constraints. Sometimes constraints help to be more creative, but sometimes core elements need to be changed to move forward. In the case of Transit King, a big economy balance and design change had to be made to potentially increase KPIs and create more opportunities for its growth. In this talk we will speak about the process of identifying core problems based on data, evaluating risks and opportunities of potential design changes and see how big alteration in core elements of the game enhanced player retention by 30% and revenue by 40 %
Applying user path analysis to create user profiles and deepen understanding of the game audience. Using this analysis to influence player behaviour and improve product metrics.

LTV
● Tests show stable churn
CON ARGUMENTS

35. Conduct an A/B test to determine should
competitor ads be shown in the game. KPIs to
keep an eye on:
● Retention / Churn rate
● Ad ARPDAU
● IAP ARPDAU
● LTV
● Playtime
The decision should be based on the LTV -
whichever group has the higher LTV wins the test
and those settings are applied to the whole user
