Final piece of advice from Dr. Lehrer - Don't try to make an app and hope to monetize it UNLESS it's something they are going to use it for something they do have to do every day. Ask yourself how critical is this app going to be to their everyday life? #iVentures

Fascinating exploration with Dr. Lehrer who is sharing so many learning experiences from her 30 years working in #gaming and the patterns and trends that caused her to pivot every 5 years before now landing on #AugmentedReality #iVentures
Learning from failure with the wildly interesting and successful Dr. Ariella Lehrer of @Hitpoint_Games and Legacy Games! #iVentures

One of biggest mistakes at the beginning as an indie studio: not understanding that we can’t think only about making games, but also about business part of it. money. law. all those boring documents.

En direct du #TFIM @IVenturesON "@Digixart a eu la chance d'être incubés mais nous avons fait l'erreur de faire en 1er un jeu premium mobile (...)" d'après @YFanise. L'esprit entrepreneurial français bien representé au panel de @FCCulture_ aujourd'hui. #FRANCEisON
#TFIM @IVenturesON "We were lucky at @Digixart to be incubated but the first mistake is that we made a premium mobile game first. We had to realize to that we didn't have the expertise in monetization"- admits French CEO @YFanise. Great #entrepreneurial spirit. #FRANCEisON
It's important not to make your #narratives too linear, like a movie, because people will end up just watching others play your game on #YouTube rather than buying and playing themselves. Cc: @YFanise of @Digixart #iVentures
Work with #influencers, particularly #youtubers. Kids are not interested in reading reviews, they want to watch people having fun with your #game. - cc: @GaMaGa_ & @TheRedBarrels #iVentures

@YFanise from @Digixart about success factors in the indie videogame industry : "start by doing something you're really passionate about!" @iVenturesON @MemoriesRetold @TFIM @francetoronto
"We realized we sucked at building communities. So we learned we need to build really good communities. We hired community managers and worked closely with publishers. It's important to know when you're screwing up" cc: Fernanda of @GaMaGa_ #iVentures
"Discoverability is a huge problem these days - how do you overcome it?" - Incorporating #marketing thinking into the design of your game - find a way to incorporate a hook that people are already connected to cc: @TheRedBarrels
How do you make money as an #indie developer? We're finding out on our panel where we are joined by @Digixart @GaMaGa_ @TheRedBarrels, & @BandaiNamcoUS moderated by @JulianSpillane
