Shueisha Games have revealed the AMU project at BitSummit 2023, a new project focused on fostering new indie developers.

The new endeavor is a means for developers to pitch their ideas to them for a chance to have publishing and promotion support.

They’re also using this as a means to expand their services beyond Japan, with AMU being available worldwide. Those interested in pitching their game on their website here.

To make a pitch, developers are required to submit a game build, a game design document (GDD), and a pitch deck in order to be considered.

Here’s a list of what the service will provide:

  • Development Support: Investment in development costs based on desired conditions / Provision of development equipment and software
