Kongregate has opened a $10 million fund for mobile developers

With the furious success of Angry Birds, Clash of Clans and Puzzle & Dragons, investors are growing faith in the gaming segment of the mobile market. They are in a hurry to open funds. And they are looking for developers. 

In February, we wrote about the opening of one of these funds, organized by the Kongregate gaming portal. Recall that it was created in order to financially help teams at the final stages of the development of free-2-play games (to bring the build to mind, integrate with various services, help with testing and monetization).

And now the names of the teams that will receive investment have become known. 

Synapse Games has released a harsh card collectible game on Facebook (not a battler) War Metal Tyrant.

RedPoint Labs is engaged in the development of approximately the same projects. She has a Facebook game BloodRealm in her portfolio, very similar to Magic The Gathering.

Making Fun is generally a publisher whose most interesting project can be called the ugly Hidden Express. 

Domestic Lingplay, based in Ufa, is currently working on a two-dimensional humorous runner Sheep Happens.

White Milk Games is busy creating a specific beat-up Endless Boss Fight.

Randomnine has been engaged in indie development of budget projects for a long time, and now it is developing the second part of the step-by-step hack ‘n’ slash Cardinal Quest II, the demo of which is already available on PC, Mac and Linux.

According to the curator of the Panayoti Haritatos Foundation, the portal has invaluable experience in order not to make mistakes in its recommendations to developers. They work with all online genres and understand all the details of the game mechanics at the micro level, which allows them to achieve serious success in monetization and retention.

We can only add that the selection of studios is strange. In any case, we wish them all good luck.
