Support the Studio
Like any company, Gamer Dorks needs money to run. However, unlike many other companies, we don’t want to make earnings through immoral means. We’re dedicated to fair, ethical monetization; never making our games pay-to-win, never creating unnecessary expense, and never engaging in any form of deceptive marketing. That said, if you’re fortunate enough to have extra money to give, we will welcome any financial support you are willing to give.
Buy Our Games
The simplest way to support us is to buy our games! If you’re interested in any of our titles, you can find them on this website and purchase them on Steam.
Game Purchases go to the studio as a whole. Profits from our studio will be paid out to our staff as hourly payments. Additionally, our development team earns an extra 40% of our monthly profits, split between each member of the team.
Since none of our games are currently released to the public, this option is temporarily unavailable.
Donate on Ko-Fi
You can donate to us on Ko-Fi! If you just want to give our studio your money and want nothing in return, this is the best way to do it.
Donations via Ko-Fi will go to the studio as a whole. Profits from our studio will be paid out to our staff as hourly payments. Additionally, our development team earns an extra 40% of our monthly profits, split between each member of the team.
Ko-Fi will take a 5% cut of our earnings as a platform fee. That’s it.
Subscribe on Discord
You can also support us on a monthly basis by joining our Discord and purchasing a server subscription! This will give you access to more channels in our Discord community.
Server Subscriptions on Discord will go to the studio as a whole. Profits from our studio will be paid out to our staff as hourly payments. Additionally, our development team earns an extra 40% of our monthly profits, split between each member of the team.
Discord takes 10% of our earnings from subscriptions as a platform fee, 6% as payment processing fees, and Apple or Google take up to 30% as app store fees if subscriptions are purchased on mobile. If possible, avoid purchasing subscriptions on mobile, as it will be more expensive and less of that will go to us.
Tip the Mods
You can send money as a tip DIRECTLY to our moderation and community management team, to be split equally between each member of the team. Visit our Pally to learn more.
100% of tips sent through Pally will go to the moderation team, and will not be counted as studio funds. You can learn more about how this is split on the Pally website.
Pally takes 0% of our earnings from tips. However, you can offer to tip Pally themselves a custom amount during checkout to show them your support as well. We recommend tipping Pally for their service, but it’s not required.
Merchandise
If you want to rep our brand out in public, you can buy our merchandise!
50% of the money earned from merchandise sales will be given to the artists who created the designs. The rest will be given to the studio as a whole.
Since none of our games or designs are currently released to the public, this option is temporarily unavailable.
Watch an Ad
If you want to support us, but can’t do it directly, you can help out by watching an ad. That’s all.
The money earned from watching ads on our website will go to the studio as a whole. Profits from our studio will be paid out to our staff as hourly payments. Additionally, our development team earns an extra 40% of our monthly profits, split between each member of the team.
Amounts earned from watching ads on our site is currently unknown.
