What is a publishing deal?

 

 Eric De Basso: Publishing deal can mean so many different things depending on what kind of game you are producing. But in our case, it's a mobile game that we produce. King Royale is a mobile game. It's a hybrid casual. That means that we look at publishers that work in that segment. There are so many publishers out there, but our goal is to find a publisher that is a little bit of dignity.

 

What does a publishing deal mean for you?

For us, a publishing deal would be a game changer. We can look forward to revenue streams that could range from 1 to 15 million a month with a publishing deal behind us. This means that we automatically become cash flow positive and not just that we become cash flow positive. It gives us so many opportunities to be able to finance future acquisitions ourselves. We will not be dependent on having to bring in money from outside to be able to expand in the edtech segment, for example.

 

What opportunities are there for King Royale beyond a publishing deal?

 

King Royale has been featured by Apple, featured by Play Store. We can continue to be featured because we have such a high rating as a game. We usually somewhere between 4.6 and 4.7. We have a strong day one retention, I would say that we are fighting in the absolute top level out there. A game that can generate attraction for seven days creates a higher attraction for 30 days afterwards. We have to reach these three parameters and we know that we are strong on day one, that we are strong on day three and now we have to get that last percentage on day seven.
