A few publishers?

by Eran Caspi · in Torque Game Engine · 08/24/2004 (1:33 pm) · 9 replies

Hello
I want to know if we can use a few publishers
I mean something like GG will publish a game in the internet
a different company will publish the game in a country
and a different publisher will publish in other sites (for example of course).
Can we do that or you must have only one publisher?

It depends on your agreement with your publisher. You can have exclusive or non-exclusive publish rights.

As the GG FAQ on Publishing states different royality rates depending on which it is. This is GG of course. Other people would have different rates.

Fees and level of service offered varies dependent on your game and interest thereof.

If you are seeking additional distribution avenues, to include self-distribution I would look at www.trygames.com and www.softwarekey.com - both offer a turn key solution.

Good luck!

You could try Dark Room Studios.
