Hi
This may be a common topic on this forum, so feel free to give me links to previous discussions.
I have a card game in the play test phase and have begun research into funding, publication, submission, etc. The question I really need to answer first is do I want to sell my game to a company or publish it myself.
If I go the Kickstarter route, aren't I locking myself into the position of publisher? If I do and my game takes off, is that a good time to try and sell it to an established company or is it too late at that point? Have any of you had a successful Kickstarter campaign and are now publishing, selling and distributing your own game?
Many thank
Do you have a game journal on this site? I'd love to keep track of how you're doing.
So different publishers can own rights to different editions of the same game, is that right? You would self publish ed. 1 and either sell the rights for ed. 2 to another publisher or sell ed. 1 with the option of regaining the rights if they decide to stop publishing it. Just trying to get how all this works strait in my head.
