The Bright Gambit fund, which was soft-launched by a group of gamers in January, announced the first five games, even though only four months have passed;
- Lonesome Village – Ogre Pixel
- Sanya – help node
- Kredolis – Pharos Interactive
- Grunnd – SektaHouse
- Orten Was The Case – Woodhill Interactive
Aiming to help various studios around the world, the target audiences of the fund are studios that cannot be financed due to social or economic constraints, lack of opportunity in the region, or lack of financial support.
Many studios are forced to give up
A spokesperson for Bright Gambit made the following comments about the company;
“Because of financial constraints, many studios are forced to give up a large percentage of their dream company in exchange for relatively small investments, before even having the chance to work on their first game. Bright Gambit aims to bridge this funding gap by helping teams gather relevant experience and build a portfolio, which will give them a fairer negotiation position if they wish to seek equity capital later on, for example.”
