How to Get Funded
summary
Babil Games exits to Stillfront for about $17M while earlier fundraising required giving 50% for $200K, illustrating harsh regional deal terms. Funding path stresses building a shipped, monetized game (example: burn $5K, revenue $7–10K = revenue positive), chasing industry connections via conferences, LinkedIn and informal dinners, then landing angels who typically write 50K–500K. Scaling from first revenue to VC-size rounds commonly takes 4–6 years. Reputation, executed metrics and demonstrable growth drive offers, not business-plan decks.
