Casual game developer Arkadium is taking a page out of Epic Games' book and launching its own platform for creators of browser-based games.Under the Arkadium for Developers program, third-party developers can submit their works to Arkadium's distribution network. If accepted, the developer gets 75 percent of the revenue.Additionally, approved games will launch with ads and possible microtransactions already integrated.As the FAQ notes, Arkadium has a global network of over 300 partners. Under its umbrella, a game's visibility "significantly increases," especially since their games are in outlets like the Washington Post and AARP.Arkadium hopes its program results in 30 new games launched on the platform by year's end. Already, the studio has 75 games actively running, which collectively net 18 million monthly players.To help with its program, Arkadium has brought on Dan Butchko to direct its Developer Relations team. Butchko, who previously worked as a strategic advisor on Playcrafting, said he would help Arkadium "build the future of browser-based games.""Arkadium is leveling up to become more than just a game studio – it is now a platform for developers around the world," he wrote. "This is just the beginning as we extend opportunities for external developers to join us."Interested parties can apply here, and must have a playable link to their game. The only real requirements are that it be possible for "seamless play" on browser and other devices, and that the game isn't already in an exclusivity deal on another platform.More details can be read here.

Dying Light developer Techland is adopting a new work model wherein staff will either work in-office or split their time between that and remote work.As confirmed by GamesIndustry, a spokesperson for the developer said the change would "create a more collaborative work environment." Sources speaking to Polish site CD Action claim team leadership was informed of the change 24 hours before they had to tell their employees.Studios enacted remote work in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. Over time, many opted to have staff come back to the office, either full-time (often to staff's dismay) or with similar hybrid policies.The return-to-office mandate was particularly tough on developers who moved to less expensive cities during the remote period, and disabled staff who fou…
