So we had a big decision to make, and we didn't take it lightly.īecause Epic doesn't yet have the same market share as their competitors, they offered us a minimum guarantee on sales that would match what we'd be wanting to earn if we were just selling Ooblets across all the stores.

I know that's asking a lot but I believe in you and your ability to download a free thing and create a user account (if you haven't already done so to play Fortnite which I KNOW YOU HAVE). You'll have to install EGS if you wanna buy Ooblets on PC.


Who is Epic and what are you talking about? We asked Epic if we could talk frankly about the situation and they were like whatever, so here's a bit of insight into what this all means and why we did it: It's incredible news for us and I'm hoping you all can be excited about it, too. Okay so goofing aside, yes, we've signed with Epic for PC launch exclusivity. What'd be next? Game consoles paying for games to be exclusive on their consoles? Netflix paying for exclusive shows? Newspapers paying for exclusive articles? It'd be some sort of late capitalist dystopia. Just imagine if other companies got it in their head to offer funding in exchange for exclusives. This is exactly what Marx warned us about! Here's what these Epic folks are doing: First they teach every kid in the world these obnoxious dances and now they're offering funding to game developers in exchange for PC exclusivity on their game store. Everyone kept talking about this "Epic" thing, so we thought we'd see what it's all about.
