- Longtail monetization can offer promising potential for indie game studios, as it might enable a steady stream of income beyond the initial release period. Instead of relying solely on launch-day sales, developers might gradually attract new players through discounts, platform expansions, and community engagement.
- A longtail strategy launch pressure and allow studios to target niche audiences that might stay loyal over time. Post-release updates, mod support, and visibility via streamers are just a few options helping to keep the game relevant in the long run. If successful, such a strategy might improve return on investment and lay the groundwork for future titles.
- Which methods are worthwhile to keep your game popular in the longtail? These and other questions will be the focus of this roundtable, hosted by Leonie Wolf, Senior Technical Animator at the Berlin-based indie studio Maschinen-Mensch.
