Sell your game
Might be an off topic about scripting, but I made a decent game, anyone I showed it too was like "wow", "how much you sell it for?", "you could be rich out of that", "that's awesome". I could just google how to sell your game but I wanna start with unity developer on how they sell their game. The game is an RPG hunting, survival and farming SIM. I want to know where should I start, the proper way, avoiding trouble in the run. And yes I know business in game can be hard, but I have the will for it. Any help or feedback will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Hello there,
First of all, congrats on getting a project ready to sell!
Now I can't tell you what your marketing strategy should be, as there are many business models that may or may not work depending on the platform. If you're unsure, you should definitely spend a few days scouring the forums and reading any article you can get your hands on.
About the fees and legal stuff: assuming you didn't pirate any of the software you used to build your project (Photoshop, Maya, etc...) and that you aren't plagiarising or using someone else's IP, there isn't much that you need to do before you can get your game out there.
You just need to be careful if you're using Unity Personal. You can read the whole thing here, but the important thing is that if you (or your company) make more than $100K a year (with Unity-built products), then you need to switch to Unity Pro.
Now of course, depending on the OS, platform, publishers etc, you may have to pay additional fees.
I hope that helps!
Cheers,
