With the surprise move from the developer behind Palworld to open a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new publishing arm of the company pro𒁏ving so popular, one poor dev laments that he's perhaps a little busier than he originally thought he'd be.

Despite being founded in 2015, it wasn't until 🐟early last year that Pocketpair became somewhat of a household name with the breakout success of Palworld. And with the game proving exceedingly popular, racking up more than only a month after launch, the studio has decided to put those funds to good use, opening Pocketpair Publishing to provide funding and publishing support to indie developers.

Understandably, this is a major opportunity for smaller d🔥evelopers, as the publisher's communications director and publishing manager John Buckley (better known by many as Bucky) found out al🅺most immediately.

Taking to , he posted two screenshots taken 15 hours after the announ⛎cement of Pocketpair Publishing, showing that he had already received 68 emails from prospective developers, as well as a whopping 1577 invitations on LinkedIn. "My inboxes were 0 before then🔴," he explains, "I think I might have underestimated how much interest there would be."

D🧜espite the mountain of work on his plate, Bucky is clearly passionate about the project, stating that Pocketpair are there to help devs💯 out where they're needed, but that how the game comes together is up to them, stating matter-of-factly that is

"If you want help with marketing or something we'll help out, but otherwise do whatever you want. We're giving devs the financial freedom to make games they want so they DON'T have to get wrapped up wit🌳h stinky rule makers and bullies," he concludes. The first, and so far only game confirmed by Pocketpair Publishing is a title from Abubakar Salim's Surgent Studios, the developer behind 2024's Tales of Kenzera: ZAU, though it's clear there's much more to come down the line.
