All in Hole: A Stolen Voodoo's lunch. A new (hybrid) casual game on the horizon
In this session, we discuss Homa Games' upcoming game, All in Hole, exploring its mechanics, gameplay experience, monetization strategies, and user engagement. We analyze how the game compares to other titles in the market, its revenue generation, and the potential for user retention and demographics.
The discussion also discusses the game's future prospects and challenges in maintaining player interest. In this conversation, we will explore the evolving landscape of hybrid casual games and discuss monetization strategies, user acquisition, and the integration of ads.
We also analyze the future prospects for game development, particularly in the context of Homa Games transitioning from hyper-casual to hybrid casual games.
This is no BS gaming podcast 2.5 gamers session. Sharing actionable insights, dropping knowledge from our day-to-day User Acquisition, Game Design, and Ad monetization jobs. We are definitely not discussing the latest industry news, but having so much fun! Let’s not forget this is a 4 a.m. conference discussion vibe, so let's not take it too seriously.

User retention may be a challenge due to the game's simplistic nature.
