Outersloth Publishes Its Standard Indie Game Funding Contract After GDC Talk

The Among Us–backed fund says transparency can make developer terms fairer.

Overview

  • The published agreement sets a 50% revenue share before recoupment and 15% after.
  • Revenue participation lasts seven years after release, and the fund does not claim developers' IP.
  • Contracts sign for all platforms even when funding targets only some, extending revenue share to additional releases.
  • Outersloth reports $19,161,040 invested across 24 projects since 2022, with an approximate 1.4% signing rate.
  • The firm requires monthly reports, connects partner studios in a shared Slack, offers no guaranteed marketing or services, and says it has rejected every generative AI pitch.
