INDIE FUND
Investment Program
OVERVIEW
The Indie Fund is an investment syndicate that invests in projects created by independent game developers that have reached prototype stage or beyond. It aims to be an alternative to the traditional publisher model that allows indie developers to become and stay financially independent.
​
The Indie Fund is comprised of a group of investors. Each investor individually decides whether they want to invest in any given game.
​
The Indie Fund allows for a flexible budget and no milestones, with half the investment given immediately and half the investment given when the first half is running out. The second payment can be adjusted depending on budget changes.
​
The investment is repaid after the game’s release. 100% of the game’s revenue will go to the Indie Fund until the investment is repaid. Once the investment is repaid, 25% of the game’s revenue will go to the Indie Fund until either:
Initial investment is doubled OR
Two years have passed
Two years after release, the debt to the Indie Fund is cleared even if the initial investment has not been repaid.
