Royaltea
Finding collaborators is hard. Tracking contributions is harder. Getting paid fairly? Nearly impossible. Until now.
We've all been there: that awkward conversation about who gets what percentage of the revenue, or worse, realizing someone's contribution isn't being valued correctly.
Royaltea replaces messy spreadsheets and confusing agreements with a transparent system that lets everyone focus on what matters—making great games.
At City of Gamers, we're not just building Royaltea—we're using it daily to develop our own indie titles. We're solving our own problems and sharing the solution with you.
Village of the Ages (VOTA) is our historical progression village sim, in which you take an island of villages from the early ages to the middle ages and beyond. Previously called Saga, the game is currently in development for Early Access release this winter.
And now, for a special presentation...
Watch this short video to understand why City of Gamers is building Royaltea and how it will transform indie game collaboration.
We tried every tool out there before building our own. Here's what we created:
Stop gambling on random freelancers. Connect with contributors who have verified skills and transparent work history, and set clear expectations from day one.
Say goodbye to arbitrary percentages. Royaltea tracks real contributions with context-aware metrics that everyone can understand—no more "but I did more work" arguments.
Automatic revenue distribution based on actual contributions means everyone gets what they earned. No chasing payments, no awkward reminders.
