Arkadium opens platform for developers with 75% revenue share

Browser-based casual games platform Arkadium announced today that it is opening up for third-party game developers. It’s launching a new program called Arkadium for Developers, which allows developers to submit their browser-based titles to Arkadium for consideration. Arkadium offers developers whose games are selected to retain 75% of the revenue. The company plans to offer up to 30 new games this year through the new program.

Arkadium has launched a new portal specifically for developers, and hired Dan Butchko, the former CEO of Playcrafting, as its director of developer relations. Chosen games gain access to not only Arkadium’s site, which hosts all of its browser-based games (or BBGs, as the company calls them), but its 300+ partners. Arkadium’s player count, it says, is around 18 million monthly.
