I have already made the mistakes you are about to make.

FirstPlayable takes small game teams the whole distance from an idea to a released game. You keep running your company.

Tell me about your gamealexander@firstplayable.se

For teams of three to twelve. Paid in cash, revenue share or equity.

Four phases, ending at launch

  1. 0

    Capital

    4 to 8 weeks

    Grants, a publisher advance, soft loans, or preparing an equity round. Most teams start here.

  2. 1

    Concept

    2 to 4 months

    A prototype becomes a project. What the game is in one sentence, and what evidence would settle it.

  3. 2

    Ship

    6 to 18 months

    The long middle. Scope made visible before it makes itself, a date the team can defend, cuts surfaced while cutting is still cheap.

  4. 3

    Launch

    1 to 2 months

    Store presence, beta sequencing, day-one operations, patch readiness before it is needed.

The wedge is the long middle. Phase 2 is the part nobody else sells into, and the part that decides whether a game exists. How it works

Paid in cash, revenue share or equity

Terms are agreed per engagement, in writing, before any work begins. Revenue share is on net receipts to the company, never store revenue. How it is paid

Get in touch

Tell me about the team, the game, and which of the four phases you are in. Nothing here is gated. If a reply is all you need, that is a fine outcome.
