App Store Game Development

Transform play into profit with our monetised games designed for App Stores and Marketplaces

We make apps for the Apple and Google Play Stores as a product you can market. These games are designed with advertisements and in-app transactions to generate ongoing revenue. We will design an economy suitable for your game design and target audience to consistently generate an income.

Can Games Generate Ongoing Revenue?

Yes, they can! A well-designed game can bring in revenue through upfront sales, micro-transactions, or ads. At Mode Games, we don’t just create engaging games—we also ensure they’re financially sustainable for the long haul.

With the WeClue app, teams can purchase credits to play and recreate the Amazing Race TV show experience in major cities across Australia.

Revenue Strategies

  • Upfront Sales: Players buy the game once and enjoy it fully.
  • Micro-Transactions & Subscriptions: Extra features, content or ongoing benefits players can purchase through one-off payments or recurring subscriptions.
  • Advertisements: Ads can generate revenue even from non-paying players. Ads can play as interstituals to drive sales or as can be motivated by a reward in game.

Tailored Monetisation

Not every game needs to rely on micro-transactions. Your game's design and target audience should guide your approach. For example, the free-to-play model with optional in-game purchases is popular because it keeps players engaged and invested.

Case Study: Stymied App

The Stymied app combines in-app purchases with rewarded and interstitial ads, creating a steady revenue stream while keeping player satisfaction high. Ads are used strategically, moderately and age-appropriate, to avoid negative reviews.

The Stymied app includes in-app purchases with rewarded and interstitial video advertising that are strategically implemented to generate continuous revenue for the client and to avoid negative reviews.

Ads for Revenue

Ads can be a strong revenue source, especially if your game doesn’t fit an in-game economy. By offering options to remove ads or earn rewards through ad views, you cater to different player preferences and enhance engagement.

At Mode, we can help you develop, launch, market, and support your game from concept to completion. Our mantra is that your success is our success. We always design and deliver our games to meet the high expectations of our customers.
