Bridging a gap
The Android Port Challenge supports African game developers in bringing PC and console titles that have earned at least ,000 in revenue or show strong user traction to mobile.
Eligible applicants are African game studio founders based on the continent with a PC or console title already published.
Selected developers receive support in porting, publishing, marketing and promotion, along with the chance to access up to ,000 in funding.
“Africa’s games market is overwhelmingly mobile-first,” said Africacomicade founder Oscar Michael.
“In recent years, we’ve seen many brilliant game projects from the continent target PC and console platforms because of funding, distribution and monetisation opportunities, but most players here can’t access them. The Android Port Challenge was our way of bridging that gap.”
