ABOUT THE COMPANY & CHALLENGE

No Power-Up is a Vietnamese game development company passionate about creating engaging and innovative gaming experiences. With a focus on casual and idle games, they strive to deliver entertaining titles like Idle Light City. Their dedication to quality and creativity has garnered attention and partnerships within the gaming industry.

Before partnering with No Power-Up, the metrics for the app weren't good. It was initially very difficult to get our publishers and developers interested in promoting the app. After conducting multiple tests, we observed promising metrics, and decide to give our best shot.


EXECUTION STRATEGY

The initial test of the game yielded impressive results, prompting us to swiftly initiate the scaling process. However, before proceeding, it was imperative to guarantee the game's readiness for increased volume. Consequently, our primary focus shifted towards optimizing ad monetization, bolstering marketing strategies, and enhancing in-app revenue streams.

Ad Monetisation

With a focus on enhancing the mediation system and incorporating additional ad spaces, we've been diligently working on refining Idle Light City, a game primarily driven by ad monetization. Leveraging our proficiency, we've successfully secured favorable eCPM rates in key markets from the outset, facilitating swift and substantial scalability.

In-App Monetisation

Initially, Idle Light City had a very few in-app purchases. We created a starter pack, tested pricing, and optimized purchases for better financial metrics.
