While I am aware that you have been keeping this semi-secret recently, what can we (the developers) expect for a cut of profits.

I think it is important that you tell us this now as opposed to later because there are probably quite a few greedy (or genius) developers who would rather not be affiliated with you in any way unless the money/benefits (not like health insurance) are good.

Yeah, that seems about right. Going with Ambrosia would give you the advantage of higher visibility, but obviously they would take a cut. Either way, remember that most of you aren't going to make games that are polished enough to market, so this is really a bridge you should cross when you get to it.

(stomach turns at the number of half-finished games that are going to be floating around all over the place)
