- The Gaming Experience That Pays
Paying Game Developers Hourly
For Their Games.
90% of games fail to make a living wage. We’re changing the math. Glitch is a distribution platform designed for small teams to build profitable, durable studios without the "Unicorn or Bust" risk.

Web-First PlayThe Gaming Market is Broken
The current model is no longer sustianable.
90% Revenue Failure
9 out of 10 games on major stores make less than $100k. After store fees and taxes, most developers earn less than minimum wage.
Big Teams, Big Layoffs
Games are having a harder time hitting revenue projections causing layoffs and studio closures seem to happen monthly.
Unpredictable Income
Traditional sales are "spiky." You have one good week at launch, then revenue drops to zero. You can't build a stable life on a spike.
New Economic Model For Small Teams
We replaced "Buy-and-Hope" with a transparent, play-based revenue model.
1. Simple Upload
Drag and drop your game files. We handle the hosting, global distribution, and security.
2. Instant Play
Players click a link and start playing in seconds. No downloads, no friction, no lost users.
3. Active Tracking
Our system verifies every minute of active play. We filter out bots to ensure you get paid for real fans.
4. Monthly Payouts
Earn $0.10 for every hour played. Predictable, recurring cash flow for your studio.

Your Game, Your Price.
We offer the most flexible monetization in the industry. Mix and match models to maximize your revenue.
Premium (Buy-to-Play)
The classic model. Users pay once for a permanent license to your game.
Weekend Rentals
Perfect for short experiences. Users pay a small fee for 72-hour access.
The Subscription Pool
Opt-in to our $19.99/mo global plan and get paid $0.10 for every hour played.
The "Rental to Full" Path
If a player rents your game and decides to buy the full version within 7 days, we automatically credit their rental fee toward the purchase. This removes the "risk" of trying a new indie title.
Your Revenue Is Your Community
If you can keep a small group of players interested, that will make you money.
