Inkle co-founder explains how TR-49 broke even in three hours
Inkle co-founder Jon Ingold revealed that their latest game, TR-49, broke even within three hours of its release due to its low price point and minimal budget. He discussed how the studio's financial model, which doesn't factor in founder salaries for individual game budgets, allows for lower pricing. Ingold also mused on changing consumer perceptions of game pricing on platforms like Steam.
