Publishing Fit & UX
We check publishing fit — hook, audience, scope — and where UX improvements will help the game land with players.
Beacon is IGIB's publishing track. We partner closely with a small number of teams and support them across development, marketing, community, and launch.
We're still shaping this program, so it isn't open yet.
Coming soonA playtest-expert publisher: fit, UX, co-fund, continuous testing, release, and live growth.
We check publishing fit — hook, audience, scope — and where UX improvements will help the game land with players.
When the fit is real, Beacon can explore selective co-funding: milestone-based support that helps a team keep building.
Real players, repeated builds, UX feedback, and test reports stay in the loop the whole time.
Continuous testing stays in the loop. We publish with player evidence.
We test who the game is really for before scaling spend or making publisher promises.
We help build a fanbase from players who actually played the game, not just saw a post about it.
Marketing, press, influencers, store pages, release support, and live ops after launch.
This is not just advisory. Beacon is meant to stay close through publishing, launch, and operating decisions, with co-funding considered when the game and team fit.
