AppMagic, a service used to determine the market for mobile apps and games, has raised $3 million in a new round of seed funding.The bulk of it ($2.5 million) comes from Gem Capital, a Cyprus-based company that's previously aided developers like Mundfish and Sad Cat Studios. With the funding, AppMagic plans to build out staff for international territories.Per the press release, that expansion will involve dedicated teams recognizing the "specific sales approaches" for the US, China, Korea, and Japan.Gem managing director Kirill Guskiy explained the firm was impressed with AppMagic growing into "the third-largest mobile marketing intelligence tool" by client numbers. The funding was also spurred by fellow analyst tool Data.ai being acquired by Sensor Tower in March."The recent deal opens a window of opportunity for AppMagic to capitalize on its strengths," said Gusky. "We are excited to support [founder] Max Samorukov and his team in this promising venture."Samorukov himself later said the funding would help his company "improve our global presence" and "accelerate our product development, adding new types of data and increasing its accuracy."It also has the added bonus of building AppMagic's profile as a viable Data.ai alternative. The latter's merger with Sensor Tower has seemingly put AppMagic in a position to become a "viable and superior option" for mobile app analytics.

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…

Getting a mobile foothold is "definitely first" in what Loombe said would be a "phased approach" toward expanding Netflix Games' reach.Visibility has one of the service's large…
