Marketing with Aquatik Studios

adent42

We don’t often promote third parties to our community, but this one reached out to us, and their business model looks intriguing!

Aquatik Studios (https://www.aquatikstudios.com/) is a video game marketing / PR service that offers a range of subscription packages that provide indie game developers services to successfully launch their games. 

What got our attention is that their package prices are both up-front and predictable!

They offer a range of services that cater to various goals and levels of assistance you may need. Everything from creating teaser trailers and circulating press releases; to building groundswell by engaging an active player and influencer community they’ve built up.

So here’s the deal, we’re curious about how well they might work for our community (and for ourselves should we decide to start releasing first-party games again), but we don’t have any games waiting to be released.

Instead, we’re going to pick a community member who has a game that is about to launch or has recently launched. 

We’ll subsidize $125 to put towards one of their monthly packages for up to 3 months (half of their lowest tier as of Jan 2021). Their prices are about to increase, but for this trial we've gotten them to agree to their 2021 pricing.

In return, we’d like you to report back to the community and allow us to share your experience on our blog and social media (assuming it's worth writing about), and to pay us back if you make over $5000 on your game (no publishing contract or anything, we’re just gonna trust you on that last bit).

Submit your game for consideration here by Feb 11: https://forms.gle/x1DLKeQyFbPnNAfE7
