We Never Yield follows two brothers, kings who were forced from their thrones as children, as they strive to reclaim their kingdom and save their people. The brothers return to their homeland, begrudgingly fighting together against the evils that plague it, and learn more about their past as they do.

On the dead marsupials, if I ever hit the lotto and not eat the money, I want to fund a all black game dev team to make a game that's not basic AF :francis:

I'll support it, but we are in dire need of a AA to AAA game that has more than one hair style for black folks :mjpls:

Very hard for a black developer to make a AA without it becoming a white or Asian project. It's too costly

You are looking at 30-50 developers, each clocking 90k per year over at least 2 years. This ignores sound team, art team, directors, etc. This kinda money is before cost of equipment, office space, and marketing.


Small developers like this one normally scaffold with side scrollers, pixelated games, and pre built cookie cutter games until they have the portfolio to approach a publisher .


Also worth noting that the black hundred millionaires and billionaires are too old to care about this market . Most of our younger entertainers don't have the bank roll yet . Cause you could easily be looking at 20 mil
