Game store GOG and publisher Retrovibe have formed a partnership to publish indie games on PC and consoles. Called Retrovibe by GOG, the initiative aims to help independent developers bring games to multiple PC storefronts and consoles, so releases are not limited to the GOG store.

Funding and console support depend on the game

The partnership says developers can receive funding depending on the project, alongside help with marketing, testing and adapting games for other platforms. Retrovibe also offers help with platform coordination and certification for console releases. The scope of support and terms will be agreed separately for each game.

The initiative is primarily looking for single-player games, and the companies say developers will retain creative control. A team without a playable build can still submit its game for consideration, for example with a prototype or trailer.

Project Warlock and Shardpunk are among the games in the lineup
