| Abstract: | 遊戲開發公司的業務計劃
The goal is to start a company that creates special, meaningful and enjoyable interactive experiences, furthering the art and science of video game creation. We aim to artistically craft games so that the content and moods are unique, based on themes of the world’s nature and cultures, bringing a little magic into people’s lives. We aim to evoke an emotional response in the player by carefully refining the game mechanics and atmosphere to achieve excellent quality. Our products are designed to be accessible to as many as possible, but primarily to the gamer demographic.
We follow a project-based financing model. Our first project has a budget of 18 million TWD, where we seek 9 million TWD in funding, and estimate a rate of return on investment of about 100% after 2 years.
Our business will take advantage of new and improved digital distribution channels and the possibilities afforded by new ways of paying for content. We will exploit the lack of innovation at the high-end of the gaming market, and the lack of depth and sophistication at the low-end through innovative “mid-core” offerings at affordable prices. We target underserved game genres and platforms with higher barriers to entry and follow a range of cost reduction strategies to create the best experiences at lower cost. This includes using an episodic or reduced-content game format enabled by the lower overheads of digital distribution.
Technology partnerships with European middleware vendors will give us access to the most advanced technologies in the industry while leading to lower production costs and quicker time to market. A multiplatform strategy during game development will maximize opportunities for market accessibility.
We focus on building valuable original IP and developing a competitive advantage in advanced games and 3D graphics technology. Our location in Taiwan allows us to develop at lower cost, while we supplement top talents from Taiwan with world-class specialists from Europe.
We will seek out partnerships with platform holders in need of innovative software to increase their hardware sales and where our products can achieve the highest visibility in the rapidly growing market for digitally downloadable games.
