  • Episode 7 - The Indie Dream
    May 31 2024
    From one-man-band to rock star.

    The creator of Necesse, Mads Skovgaard, has taken the full journey, starting 12 years ago from scratch in every sense, even building his own game engine to support his vision of a fun and interesting game experience. Getting in touch with influencers, building updates, community management, and much more until at one day reaching the front page of Steam to discover that a vast number of players are willing to invest in spending time with their friends in the emergent worlds of Necesse.

    We also talk about next steps after growing from indie to indie+ (or true independence), having a team to share your vision with, and how to develop your IP and stories in an emergent world sandbox game.

    Thank you for listening. Please contact me to share your comments and ideas; LinkedIn: Robert Jønsson DAHL, Discord: video.game.lawyer, or email: roj@dahllaw.dk

  • Episode 5 - “Tales of acquisition and investment”
    Mar 8 2024
    Quirky fun is on in this episode - but what else to expect from Niels Wetterberg, CEO of Invisible Walls. Niels recommends some games suitable for playing together with your kids; Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime and It Takes Two. And he revels to have an eclectic taste in music!

    You may discover interesting facts about how Invisible Walls was ‘just getting acquired’ by Amplifier/Embracer Group, and what has followed since.

    Niels takes us through his background from the film industry, where he was brought up with the dogma never to take a “no” personally as there is always someone that wants to give you money. We talk about strategy and military focus on the goal; Building a business on a vision rather than just creating a game project.

    Invisible Walls founders’ investment vehicle called Three Little Pigs ApS has made its first investment in the Aalborg based studio, Cindercat. Main focus is about supporting and giving back to the industry.

    Finally, we discuss the current situation in Danish games Industry that is about to organize by itself.

    Please write to me with comments and ideas via LinkedIn or mail.

    Special thanks to DAHL Law firm and Podcaster.dk.
