Jest Games Fund wants to support studios building games "for the RCS messaging ecosystem"
The Jest Games Fund aims to support game studios developing for the RCS messaging ecosystem, providing funding in three tiers: Explore ($40,000), Scale (up to $200,000), and Flagship (up to $1 million). This funding model allows developers to retain 90% of their revenue while Jest covers all text delivery costs, which could significantly lower the financial barriers for entry into this space.
Existing games can also be published on Jest, provided they meet the mobile web build requirement. The fund's structure allows for progression based on performance, which means studios can potentially scale their funding as their games prove successful. With the inaugural cohort closing on April 15, this is a timely opportunity for developers looking to innovate in messaging-based gaming.
“If you're accepted into the fund, we'll create onboarding experiences to drive user acquisition.”
