🎮 Pocketpair Publishing is betting on INDIE, Palworld's success gave the studio room to break the usual rules.
A year after launch, head John Buckley laid out the publishing strategy: projects chosen for developer passion, not instant profit; backing solo/duo teams, minimal meddling, and strict transparency on budgets. They draw hard lines, no Web3/NFT deals and no games made with generative AI; if devs can't explain budget and roadmap, there's no deal. Another goal is bridging Western projects to Japanese players, cited example is Windrose shifting toward PvE survival. Long term, PPP aims to be a reliable partner for indie devs.
