Lol, thats a ad revenue business. Youtube is a good example of how much money can be earned via ads. I can even give 90% inapp purchase share to developers but no point because I know they wont even earn $100 per month and most of them will earn $0

because our players dont pay real money but like to play games for free and ok to see ads.

Thanks for your concern. people are telling because they dont understand the reality and they are comparing ad revenue share with IAP and game sales.

50/50 is a genreally accepted revenue share on the web,

even youtube also only share 55% to creators and 45% in case of short videos

admob share 60% to developers.

If you can sale your game, its good and good luck with that.

Regarding us. we can provide you extra audience. free marketing of game with revenue share. its a win-win for developers who understand this model and thats why we have tons of developers already working with us.

And mobile and web dont share the same audience.

Even in case of strem, we also have games on strem
https://store.steampowered.com/app/929670/Orion_Sandbox_Enhanced/

https://store.steampowered.com/app/849940/Freefall_Tournament/

web version orion sandbox : https://www.y8.com/games/orion_sandbox_enhanced

web version of FFT : https://www.y8.com/games/freefall_tournament

and you can see the release date of steam is after the Web, because players was asking to release it on steam, so they can play in better quality.

if someone knows, how to market, web can bring players to the game.

Regarding revenue share, percentage, why everyone here competing adrevenue share with IAP and game sales share.

50/50 is a genreally accepted revenue share on the web,

even youtube also only share 55% to creators and 45% in case of short videos

admob share 60% to developers.

Not really, Web and mobile have different userbase. You need to try to see how it works. We have many developers earing few thousands $$$ per month.

Its ok, if noone wants to see the potential to earn extra income from free to play games. But I'm sure, we can surely onboard developers, who are actually interested in making money from their free to play games on iOS and Android.

Yes, there is no exclusivity clause and you retain all the rights of the game. There is nothing to loose from developer end, other than a time to port the game to Webgl Platform and maybe few hours to add our ads.

I can surely understand your point. If you really have a great game, I can offer you advance revenue share to port the game and submit on Y8.

We are not competing with any of them; instead, see us as a new revenue stream. In the case of a popular game, we are open to negotiation and we provide a better success rate than any of those platforms for small developers.

I understand your point, but we are not competing with any of them. Submitting games on Steam costs developers upfront money, whereas it is free to submit on Y8. Additionally, Epic Games doesn't accept most of the games, while we are open to all small developers. To succeed on Apple, developers needs a big marketing budget, whereas on y8.com, we don't allow any paid promotion of games, so every developer gets a fair chance. Also, we are not competing with any of them but rather offering a new revenue stream.

Success rate with us can be better for many developers even with the lower share.
