Pitching games & Standing out in Hybrid-casual?
Just sat down with my dear friend Guy Yogev from SuperSonic.
Sharing our Studio Speed-Date chat with you since I find it valuable for the studios. 🤟🏻
Anyone not knowing them?
From Trash Tycoon to Screw Master, Supersonic has already published 130+ Games, hit 190M+ MAU, and racked up 6.4 Billion installs.
What’s SuperPitch?
They’re opening the door to just 8 studios, a live pitch session where selected teams will present their games and get real-time expert feedback.
As a part of the TEAM, let’s hear from THE GUY.
Guy: Complexity kills. We’ve seen hundreds of decks.
The ones that win us over get to the point fast. Your pitch should scream “this is the fun” within 30 seconds. If we need to squint to understand your core loop, something’s off.
Guy: We get pumped when we see bold mechanics executed with polish.
Not “polish” as in overproduced visuals—we are big believers in gameplay-first thinking. It’s about showing depth, clarity, and vision early. Bold mechanics will not do the trick if your core gameplay loop is not clear and easy to understand from the get-go.
When we see a studio take a smart, creative risk and back it with playtest results, we pay attention.
Guy: It’s huge. A fun loop gets you through the door, but monetization gets your game to market.
When you build your game, you should have a proper monetization plan that will direct us to plan ahead regarding chalk points and relief period. You don’t need a full economy model on day one—but we want to see that you’ve thought about retention and revenue, not just mechanics.
Our monetization team has a razor-sharp instinct for scalable economies. They’ll spot whether a game has a shot at being both sticky and profitable.
Guy: Practice your story. This is not a Shark Tank—this is a conversation.
You’ve got 20 minutes with some of the best minds in mobile gaming, from growth talent, monetization strategists, to product experts, so own your narrative.
Why this game? Why your team? Why now?
If you show up with energy, clarity, and just enough data to back your gut, you’ll crush it.
Don’t let your enthusiasm take over everything- Your pitch should do the talking for you even after your presentation.
Guy: Trying to “look big” instead of being real.
We’d rather see a great prototype and hear your genuine thoughts on where you want to take it than a flashy deck with no substance. Don’t try to impress with buzzwords; impress with insight.
If you’re building something exciting in the hybrid-casual space and want actual, honest, in-depth feedback from a publishing team that knows what scales…
Only 8 studios will make the cut. You’ll pitch your game live to Supersonic’s elite team, get feedback on the spot to kickstart a publishing deal.
