Just received an offer for a non-exclusive license

It's the first time this ever happened to me, so I'm quite...dazzled.

I recently finished a game (Penguin Slider, can be played at Scirra Arcade). and sent it to some gaming portals

One of them just answered, offering me 500$ for a non-exclusive license.

I would like to have some advice regarding this. Is it a good offer? Should I ask for revenue share based on how many plays the game have?

Thanks!

That's the average rate for non-exclusive. You can try negotiating up to $1,000, just depends how much you value your game. Exclusive average at $2,000.

For revenue share, your best bet is to just do it yourself by using cocoonjs+ads and keep 100% of revenue.

pcfernandesjr how long did it take from the time you sent it to them to the time you got the offer? For your first game $500 is not that bad at all.

I see.Thanks for the tip!

Working at night during 1 and 1/2 week.

Yeah, I did a quick search around, and —'s reply sort of confirms that. It seems like $500 is slightly above the average price practiced.

Thanks for the attention guys!

Sorry I meant how long did it take them to make an offer after you submitted your game?

Congratulations on your offer

That's a brillant start, congratulations!

Oh, i see. After uploading the game on Gamejolt, I sent some e-mails to gaming portals. It took 5 days to have a reply from one of them.

Congratulations on your offer

Thanks Tom! And thanks to Scirra for making this possible to me

That's a brillant start, congratulations!

Thanks Kenny!

Great job man! That's a good rate for a non-exclusive license with no changes to the game.

care to share your game portal list who sponsor html5 games ..

taniafbd You should check the forums over at html5gamedevs.com as well for that type of info... or search the forums here

$500 is allot of money. It may not be the best amount, but it's good.

Thanks Ed! Your case study is really inspiring for me to keep going forward.

I selected some websites from this list and contacted them.

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but what is the going rate now for a non-exclusive HTML5 license? I once got $500 per license, but now I'm told it is about $100. What are you guys experiencing?

Around $400 seems to be the going rate from publishers I work with.
