May 11, 2024 | By Team SR
The game production platform Jamango!, situated in Ireland, has successfully raised $2.5 million to expedite its development in anticipation of its worldwide launch later this year.
SUMMARY
- The game production platform Jamango!, situated in Ireland, has successfully raised $2.5 million.
- Elkstone and Delta Partners co-led the pre-seed investment round, while famous angel investors such as Brian Caulfield, Brendan O'Driscoll, and Conor Sheahan, who becomes chairman, contributed additional funds.
The platform's accessibility for anyone wishing to create or modify their own games has contributed to its success. Players may mix basic block-based construction with a no-code editor, so that a lack of coding experience is no longer an obstacle to involvement.
User-generated content is in high demand in the gaming business, and browser-based instant gaming is making a comeback, supporting a market that is projected to increase by $63 billion by 2027. With its emphasis on browser-first and web-based gaming rather than downloads, it intends to contribute to this change.
