Congrats! You've been signed! Now what?
summary
After signing, development splits into concrete Milestones tied to funding and acceptance: create acceptance criteria checklists (Google Docs links to design docs), hit mid/late check‑ins, and expect weekly QA meetings plus monthly publisher reviews; use Jira for bug tracking, consider porting houses for consoles and translators for regions. Example: a five‑person studio built Hashtag Blood with hand animation, shipped DLC, appeared at Gamescom and Realms Deep, and earned an Annie nomination, proving the process works.
