KeyQuest Studio just got their Steam page for Dead Ends up and running!
Met with the two devs for the first time at Gamescom last month. Super nice guys!
It's super impressive what they have been putting together for less than a year. They are dropping by our office tomorrow to say hi, always nice with a friendly visit!

Forbrugerrådet Tænk anmelder 17 spil for at manipulere spillerne med virtuel valuta
17 af de mest populære spil, herunder Fortnite, Minecraft og Pokémon Go, slører prisen på køb i spillet ved at opgive pris i virtuelle valutaer og gøre det svært at regne ud, hvad den faktiske pris er i kroner og øre. Det er i strid med markedsføringsloven, og derfor anmelder Forbrugerrådet Tænk spilvirksomhederne til myndighederne.

No Danish developed games was reported to the 'Forbrugerombudsmanden' (fixed) and some games that was reported might be hard to define as games strictly aimed at kids to say the least.Disse spil er anmeldt
Spil anmeldt af Forbrugerrådet Tænk:
- Call of Duty: Mobile
- Candy Crush
- Counter-Strike 2
- FIFA: Mobile football
- Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery
- Hayday
- League of Legends
- Overwatch 2
- PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds: Mobile
- Pokémon Go
Spil anmeldt i samarbejde med den europæiske paraplyorganisation BEUC:
- Clash of Clans
- Diablo IV
- EA Sports FC 24
- Fortnite
- Minecraft
- Rainbow Six Siege
- Roblox
Though there are certainly examples of potential problematic games here in Denmark, touching hundreds of millions of kids around the world with 'creative' business practices. But for now they have not been reported.
At the fundamental level.. operating a game studio in the big leagues of the Freemium/F2P space would be VERY difficult. If not outright impossible and the studios wouldn't be around as we know it, if they didn't conform to the global game of competition in the F2P space.
Another studio would just take it's place while the original studio would just be missing out on the opportunity, scoring a huge own goal.
Also it is not like the 'Forbrugerrådet Tænk' doesn't have a point. They certainly do! But the only real solution is to... not have a company and make games that earns millions in tax revenue and salaries for their numerous employees?!
But who knows! Maybe some day some sort of big EU regulatory thing comes along and pulls the carpet underneath these studios and they will have to completely reevaluate their business.
So yeah.. it's an interesting discussion!
