Pitching Games to Publishers
summary
Focuses on concrete deliverables: a two‑page sell sheet, tailored pitch decks (about 30 versions made), and a company deck plus a working prototype — first deal closes remotely from a sent deck and Skype calls. Budgets work backwards from revenue lag of 2–5 months, plan 20–30% contingency, expect platform cuts ~30% and local tax ~27.5%; include timelines, team bios, legal review, and who covers marketing/localization so funding asks match publisher scale.
