Sold my .io game for $1500 USD.
Cody asked me on Twitter for an update on Golf Royale, so here we go.
If you read my posts or milestones on IH you will get a good background about the my browser-based .io game, https://golfroyale.io
Anyway, why did I sell it?
Well, my consulting business, TensorWorks, really took off in Q2-Q4 of 2020 - a great problem to have! So that meant I didn't have enough time to support my .io game anymore but players were still very keen on it so I reached out the community and they found someone to buy it.
I did some negotiation over Discord and I ended up selling them the site, the source code, and the Discord server for $1500 USD. When I sold everything the financials looked like this:
Monthly costs: ~ $40 USD
Monthly revenue: ~ $100 USD
The $1500 USD nowhere near covered my development time, but it was a hell of a ride and feels great to have shipped something that people really played. People are still playing it to this day I see, though I think interest has dropped off some - so maybe I timed selling quite well, haha.
Funnily enough, some people from the community told me the game has been sold on again. It doesn't seem to have been updated much, which is a little sad, but such is life.
Hey guys, I understand what you're saying about finding a decent platform; I've been there myself. I've tried a bunch of sites some had delays with payouts, some had interfaces that felt like they were from 2005, and some only offered attractive bonuses on paper. Ultimately, I settled on wageon games https://wageon-h.click/73516/8357?l=3990&utm_source=pr I'll say right away that I'm not idealizing it, but of all the options available, I liked it better than the others. Firstly, it's really easy to navigate. You don't have to spend 10 minutes searching for a slot or a live game; everything is logically laid out. This is important for me because I play more often in the evenings and don't want to waste time searching. Secondly, I noticed that payouts are consistent. Not instant, of course, but without those "additional weekly checks" that happen on some platforms. I've made a couple of withdrawals everything went smoothly. And thirdly, the games themselves. I feel like the selection was carefully curated, not just "thrown in everything." I often come across decent slots with decent payouts, not just the hard-core payout machines. I'm not saying it's the world's top slot, but for me personally, it's the most comfortable option right now.

This is great - could you share how you built the game itself? i.e. what tools / framework you used and how you came up with the idea?
That's super interesting and the game works really well.

I think the guys that bought it are partnered with Addicting Games?
