General Information

• Every employee is assigned a percentage of a game’s revenue
  • Generally, assigned percentages reflect the employee’s salary based on the game’s current revenue
    • Example
      • Game currently averages 100,000/month in revenue
      • Employee’s salary is 10,000/month
      • Generally, assigned percentage would be 10%
• If the assigned percentage makes more than their monthly salary, the difference will be given in the form of a bonus
  • Examples

Dilution

• If the total percentages for all employees exceeds 50%, all percentages will start being evenly diluted to accomodate the excess
  • Contractor payments will be factored in as a psuedo employee with a fixed percentage based on the spend for the month
    • Example
      • Game makes 100,000 for the month
      • Contractor payments total 5,000 for the month
      • Contractor payments would be factored in as a psuedo employee taking up a fixed 5% for dilution purposes
  • Examples
