A giant like Xbox’s approach to a small team like the Polish studio’s can be confusing. Nevertheless, Richard KieltykaProducer at Yaza Games, describes having a smooth experience for the game’s arrival in Game Pass with colleagues at true successes:
The whole process was smooth and painless. And I know what I’m going to say next might sound cheesy, but from the start of our discussion, we could see that the entire Xbox team just has a passion for gaming.
A decision made at Xbox’s initiative after trying the demo and liking the vision carried by the studio, Kieltyka continues.
We were lucky that Xbox liked our demo and the vision for our game. They tried it, liked it, and told us they wanted to bring Inkulinati to Game Pass players. It was hard to say no!
One point Kieltyka would like to emphasize is the level “Trust Granted by Xbox”. Despite having little experience in the industry and working on their first production, the Yaza Games teams felt supported by the Xbox teams.
[…] This gave a boost to the team’s morale, which felt like it could pick up a gear.
Kieltyka shares the opinion of several other teams that their game was released on Microsoft’s service. As a long-time subscriber, he promotes people’s awareness “to a variety of games and genres that they wouldn’t necessarily have discovered on their own. » He also highlights the visibility offered for independent titles such as It’s a peanut which, given other blockbusters, would not arouse the same curiosity among players. In addition, the same curiosity could lead him to buy on another platform.
[…] If I play a game on Game Pass that I really like, there’s a chance I’ll end up buying it on another platform. Being on Game Pass seems like a win-win for both developers and players.
Finally, the Yaza Games teams even plan to add a multiplayer dimension to their game, because with the presence in Game Pass there are all the more potential players who could discover the title. A virtuoso loop that evokes the audience that the service offers to the studios.
