GOG.com courting indie developers

Independent game developers offered perks to promote submissions on GOG.com website.

 

Digital games retailer GOG.com is encouraging submissions from independent game developers on its website.

Games that are accepted will be sold on GOG.com (GOG), a platform that distributes games free of any form of digital rights management (DRM). Developers are also offered the opportunity to opt in for an advance on royalties from game sales made.

GOG is providing new releases free promotion on the site's front page and via its social media channels as part of a marketing campaign. Additionally, developers are able to gain feedback on their game from GOG, regardless of whether the submission is accepted or declined.

Several independent game developers currently utilise GOG's platform. Developers of games such as To the Moon, Defender's Quest, and Driftmoon appear on the video supporting the site's approach.

GOG is a PC game retailer and distribution service owned by CD Projekt Red. The platform has been advocating its DRM-free stance since 2011.
