Need to see how many here are interested in the esports industry.

Esports & Gaming

Founder

I have started a mobile game development studio with a unity developer. We created a few casual and hypercasual games for a client. And some augmented/virtual reality solutions. I don't know how to increase my sales pipeline. Any advise.

Quality Manager

I am looking to switch from ecommerce to gaming industry. 
1. Need opinion if that will be a good move? 
2. Will this industry grow? 
3. Also, which are the best Indian startups to join in gaming industry?

Gaming industry - future in india

Product Manager

I myself work for a game dev company from 5years.

After gaining experience I finally started working on creating my game,
 in the beginning it was just 2 man work.
 over time I needed to make the team bigger and within 2 months it became an ambitious project.

I now have 12 employees(most of them are my friends hence I am not having to pay a lot) 
For some of them , it's full time , and for rest it's their 2nd job.
I pay directly from my savings account.

Dunno why, I registered for Pvt Ltd on my parents name(I can't register on my name since I already work somewhere else)and soon getting it registered as a startup.

Since I am compleyely unaware of all these things,
What to avoid in the beginning?
I am about to get a CA
Also I am planning not to add employees under the name of the company for now until the game is released

Additionally,
What benifits(general/easy) can I get for being startup ?
I am also planning to sign up for AWS/GCLOUD startup program so that server cost can be reduced.

Any more info that I should be aware of?

I am registering for a startup, no pre-idea, suggestions on what to avoid , and how to get benefited?

Happy friday folks!

Starting off with the Watercooler - the place for all casual conversations and thoughts that might feel too small to make a post out of :) 

Look forward to hearing from you folks!

Daily Watercooler (21st July)

What the post says. Albeit my sincere condolences to those laid off! The ruling is really unfortunate for many who joined the Real Money gaming space in india but this was also inevitable. I know people who have tried to get out of the Indian RMG space because they didn’t like the ethics of it or saw it’s impending doom, with all the uncertainty around the legality.

The reason I’m for it is because it ruined the beginnings of the Indian gaming industry. Indian gaming companies only focused on learning the skills to build stronger hardcore gambling games. Some companies had the opportunity to diversify into using the money to make mistakes and learn to make great games. Maybe hire outside talent to learn better and bring the disciple of Game Design to India. But the majority have failed to do so. I hope this delivers significant pressure to the few that survive to try harder at understanding the gaming landscape and attempt to make games they themselves would play. (The majority of game teams in in Indian gaming companies, do not play / enjoy their own game - Read “Don’t eat their own dog food” cliche)

Right now, the Indian gaming ecosystem is like if Hollywood was run by product managers instead of good writers. They just study what “works” and do more of that, missing the point of artistic exploration and concepts of novelty, story-telling and fun. (That is happening in a way, given the direction of constant re-boots of old movies - lead by a very Product MBA mindset with only 2-3 orders of thinking) - incapable of deconstructing “fun” itself (even though some people claim to be able to))

A bit of a jumble of thoughts but just wanted to get that thought out.

My wife is keen on launching a job portal similar to platforms like naukri, shine, iimjobs, and instahyre.

We're searching for dedicated and meticulous tech enthusiasts to join her in this venture. 

Salaries will be provided upfront every 15 days in cash. The workspace is situated in our home's basement in Greater Kailash, with Kailash Colony metro being the closest station.

Note: She and I aren't tech-savvy.
P.S. We highly value diverse applicants.
P.P.S. We're still determining the exact composition and number of our core team members.

We'd love to hear your thoughts. Reach out if you're intrigued.

What is your opinion Animation industry in India?

Anyone who has followed Studio Ghibli here ?

Indian Gaming scene is pure shit. 💩 
Everyone is stuck in PUBG. No proper culture as well.

Neither a proper game has been launched from India. 
 No one is interested in this industry at all?

Gaming.

I made something two years back just out of curiosity (kind of like a prototype)..
have given up on the idea at that time, thinking it won't work
Today, scrolling on Instagram saw a reel where the same idea raised millions of dollars in shark tank US !! 💀
Is there a way to test the ideas for new entrepreneurs in the market ? Like any platform

Million dollar deals

Senior Engineer

Hey guys,

I am currently struggling with my startup and it’s product launch. Having talked to most of the VCs and getting ghosted, what should I do?

I have built the product and it’s ready to be launched, have a small team but I am a solo founder. 

Applied to YC and even got referral from 2-3 YC founders, still no interview. Looking for $500k.

Let me know if anyone knows anyone ❤️

Funding for my startup

If you wanted to make career in gaming and there was a platform where you could get to learn gaming and how to stream and earn more would you join the platform?

Edtech platform like unacademy but for gamers

Senior UI/UX Designer

I will start. Don't ask me to prove anything.

1. The CEO of MPL bought a ~20cr house in embassy grove, Bangalore just before laying off 50% of the MPL team this week.

2. VC funded Live streaming apps like rooter, eloelo,  are basically frauds. Get tonnes of cheap users by running ads that look like porn, the real engagement is really bad unless they do giveaways. They use VC money to show porn ads and do giveaways, brag about downloads & engagement to raise even more VC money. It's a total ponzi.

Got some secrets off your chest 🧰

A relative of mine lost INR 20 Lakhs in RummyCircle. He is above 50 years old and lives in a village.

Investor

I just got laid from from the current company and looking a job as a creative designer , most of the companies are adding Video creator in the JD , i mostly work on 2D designs and digital sketching, every company I checked are asking for a graphic designer + video editor . Is this normal among mid companies ?
