From Rs 18k to Rs 2.5 crore, how there has been a rise in funding from strangers for Indian game developers
Seven years ago, a political board game, Politics of India, raised slightly over Rs 18,000 in crowdfunding. The crowdfunded game gold rush had just taken off globally. The Bengaluru-based creator shipped 50 boxes to those who had funded the project and it was considered a success. Cut to 2020, Shasn, another political board game, has raised over Rs 2.5 crore on crowdfunding platform Kickstarter, the highest ever by an Indian game project.
