I am so incredibly excited for this tomorrow. We hope this is the first of many editions in the future years. We really wanted to do something different - While supporting charity.

📅 Date & Time: October 13 at 11:00 AM (GMT+7)
Go experiment & kidnap humans! Super happy to have supported this since its' inception.
🛸 MARS ATTRACTS is out now! 🛸 #gaming #indiegame
Apologies for this everyone. But the last few months have been crazy (in a good way) and we have lots of updates coming to the public over the next few months. But we've also been terrible (Especially me) at keeping up with our inbox.

So I've also personally deleted my inbox July backwards 🙏
RESET! 🔄

Our scouting pipeline is restarting. If you’ve pitched a game & didn’t hear back, please resend 🙏. New playtesters 🎮 are on board, so unless we’re deep in events, we’ll reply within 3 weeks ⏳

Fresh start, ready to discover your games 🚀

#gamedev #indiedev #pitching
I'm super proud of what our team has accomplished in less than 2 years, but we are still not keeping up to our scouting inbox (sorry for that - now improved!). Now it's time to take all of these gamescom conversations and get to executing - So we can finish the year of 2025 strong 💪 .
Gamescom this year was an absolute blast for Agora Gaming Partners. We got to celebrate closing deal(s) & watch our current portfolio announce their titles during FGS and we got to scout some incredible titles for the future😎.

Thank you to all of our friends, partners, clients & investments!
If someone is still looking for accomodation for gamescom we have a spare Deluxe Twin Room at the Marriott Cologne (Main one) from Sunday - Saturday (17 - 23).

Please DM us if interested.
We are:
1. Full on representation at this time so we cannot work with more companies.
2. Still looking for games with a total budget of $5m or less that needs funding to GTM.
3. If you need help in the APAC territories (All things funding/publishing) - Reach out to Lili and myself.
I'll be in Germany quite long this time! August 16th - 24th (Saturday - Sunday). My schedule is mostly pre-booked this year so I'm not very active on MTM as I normally am - But my colleagues are on @meettomatch.bsky.social

I will probably get back to you very late on MTM as I'm booking outside.
Back in China after 8 years and my first ever China Joy was an absolute blast! It was great to meet local developers, chat with prospective partners and see the influx of Western publishers scouting locally.

Time to prepare for gamescom & see you next time China! @agpadvisory.bsky.social
Follow some incredible Developers :).
We landed here a few days ago and we're already seeing some familiar faces. We're surprised by how many reactions our posts are getting given how few followers we have. Is it easier to reach the #gamedev community here?

Sure feels like it. And we like it 😎

Just landed back in Bangkok after 3 weeks in Europe and I'm ecstatic to announce our partnership with Runes Studio and I'm looking forward to working on their various projects.

Together we'll launch Runes to new heights!! 👏 🥰
Proud to partner with Runes Studio – one of France’s most exciting PC & console game devs.

Their unique vision, craft & commitment to quality align perfectly with our mission at AGP.

We’ll support them across #business, #funding & #publishing.
Big things ahead. 🎮

Celebrating my 31st birthday with my other half after a lovely lunch with mom earlier in the day.

Swedish seafood always hits the right spot. And of course we had to waste some money on Caviar and a vodka shot... 😂

Thank you all for your kind wishes in the DMs! I'M OLD.
Super excited to be working with this team from Sweden. Small, but agile team that have put together a brutal 1-4 player co-op melee roguelike. You can play the Demo on Steam right now here:

store.steampowered.com/app/3382290/...

It's an early version with lots of improvements to come!
I was able to visit Runes Studio in Caen, France to look at their upcoming games, chat to the team and see what they are working on.

I may hve threatened to decapitate Paul if he didn't show me their next title. Mission success 😎Now - Onwards to Paris🙏. Keep an eye out for this amazing team!

If you're only in need of cash as finishing funds for your game and you're looking to raise $4M USD or less, we’re always happy to chat as well💡

You can find us all at [email protected] . I'll also be in Europe for almost 3 weeks! Happy to visit your studio.
At @agpadvisory.bsky.social, we've been fortunate to work with some incredible studios since our inception As a result of a few recent success stories, we now have capacity to support 1 or 2 new partners.

If you're a studio looking to level up with a full 360° suite of support, let's talk 🤗.
Our playtesters at @agpadvisory.bsky.social Freya & Odin have been underperforming the last few weeks which is why we've been slow at our inbox. They mostly whine, scratch our gaming chairs and take naps (Sorry HR it had to be said).

We'll 'TRY' to get back to all of you in the next 2 weeks. 🙏
