In fact, 30 games have passed and 120 new titles have been released. But for Google, and for many users, it's not enough, so the company has decided to create a program that provides technical support, development resources and funding to promote the creation of more games.
Up to five development kits
Amid the news of the Google Developers Conference for 2020, the company that announced it online, Google has announced a new program called Stadia Makers for expand the opportunities for developers freelancers on their video game streaming site.
This program works in partnership with Unity, which currently powers 50% of all new games with top support from Stadia and more than 25 other platforms. The main benefits of Stadia Makers can be summarized in three ways:
-
Technical team support– A technical support structure that will help developers meet specific alpha, beta, certification, and release dates.
-
Up to five free upgrade kits depending on the size and design of the developer team.
