Just curious how TGC as a business is built.

- Purely to survive on AppGameKit - new recruits meanst £75.

- Price to pay for great add ons

- The members of TGC - do you have other working jobs and run TGC as a background hobby?

- You work on nearly all our frustrations of this not working that not working for free

I think we all take for granted that we have just solely paid out £75ish and receive life time support to indeed make better

Money doesn't grow on trees - so maybe need to think upping the cost of any significant upgrades you do with new developments/updates to gain you more in the long run

- You are fair better if not more than UNITY and all the others and that's blooming £700+ for a licence

- But you capped your fee to less than £100.... - I would certainly pay £400 for AppGameKit!!!!

- Up the cost of the Games Pack at least

I might be talking absolute cods wallop but as long as your surviving ok as a business then leave you to it

SSL certificates are expensive - "https" - we don't have warnings, so you must have cotia ones and not created in house.

SQL connections into writing and reading to and from a Database requires a Cal - blooming expensive. - assume this forum is sql based

A web Domain - go Daddy is ok

Windows Server 2012/2016 - £700+

Need a new business model proposal?

Kick me off again if you like for been like this.. I do care believe it or not....

I would sent them an email about your concerns/offerings. Certainly these things are not the topic for a coding support forum.

Hi,

We're doing OK and focusing on what matters for our three game making products; AppGameKit, GameGuru and the new MyWorld. We also earn money from the Driving Test apps which do very well.

Our pricing is set to Hobbyist and Indie levels because that's who use it.
