What's a good name for a Megastucture telecom company?

"Godots" Launcher. From now on I refuse to live without this! (1/2)

@SwampaThing @jogamedev this will get you banned as a SteamWorks partner

@jogamedev Release as shareware on Steam, then point the player to your website to make the full purchase.

Here's an example of how much money a game dev actually pockets after earning $100,000 of Gross Revenue on Steam: - ~18% (returns, chargebacks, taxes) = $82,000 - 30% (Steam's platform cut) = $57,400 - 0% (if you self-publish) - 15.3% (U.S. Self Employment Tax) = $48,617 - $4,377 (Federal income tax) = $44,270 - ~$0-$3,800 (State income tax) = ~$40,400 So you could pocket about $40,000, but don't be discouraged. $100k gross sounds like a lot but it's only 5,000 copies sold at $20. This is attainable, but it's also why it's important to keep your development timeline short. x.com/jogamedev/stat… Disclaimer: This is a rough simplified example for a US solo dev self-publishing as a sole proprietor with minimal other expenses. Actual results vary a lot by your location, business structure, deductions, filing status, etc. This is not tax or financial advice — talk to a CPA.

I'll be releasing Godot Starter Kit: Match-3 tomorrow but for now I want to direct your attention to the 70 (!) splash screens I've made which you can use to proudly display your excellent taste in game engines. ✨ github.com/KenneyNL/Godot…
