3: Steam Commission 30%. This amount sounds high, but it’s worth it. Steam has shown our game to players around the world a total of 3.8 million times in the last 2 weeks. If we sold all our assets, we wouldn’t be able to get such access with paid marketing. remaining money: 658 thousand TL.

4: VAT and GV: After paying 18% VAT on our income from Turkey on Steam, we will pay 25% Income tax. (There seems to be double VAT here, but no matter how hard I searched, I couldn’t find an exit.) Remaining money: More or less, the cost of the game.“

The potential numbers sound terrific, but; The creator of Pokemon Go has a nice saying, my partner told me: “We owe our success in 1 Night to 1000 Days of work”. Our company, which has been making a loss for 5 years, has increased for the first time as a result of all we have learned. I haven’t been getting my salary from my own company for months, saying “Let’s hire another engineer for that money”. Now we are getting paid and we will use this to grow even more and to become a Turkish game company that you can be even more proud of. Even CBT is not done yet, updates are on the way :)”
