Session Name:

Funding Futures Series: Inception Publishing: The Shift to Indie Self-Publishing

Overview:

With the sober reality that only a fraction of games that are pitched to publishers actually get signed, this panel will discuss the logic and justification for self-publishing. This includes the need to do marketing at the earliest phases (and what that actually looks like). The session will also explore the various pieces that are needed to make self-publishing work, like dedicated project funds and paid-for publishing services. We'll examine how the landscape is evolving to enable more self-publishing to happen successfully.
