On Off Games

On Off Games is a mobile game development company established in 2021 in Istanbul, Türkiye, focusing on the hyper-casual market. The company was co-founded by Eldar Satymov and is composed of a team of game developers and artists aiming to create globally recognized hyper-casual games. The firm operates with a team of eight people who manage three to four projects concurrently, maintaining a strong emphasis on quality.

The company's business model centers on developing free-to-play mobile games that are monetized through in-app advertising. This approach aligns with the "Games as a Service" (GaaS) model, where revenue is generated from continued player engagement. In January 2024, On Off Games secured a significant milestone with a $1.5 million investment from Mobavenue, a Singapore-based advertiser. This funding is allocated towards expanding their development and artistic teams, enhancing their market presence, and developing new titles.

On Off Games has produced several mobile titles, including "Epic Hero Weapon Craft Masters," "Flash Action Master," "Territorial Wars," and "Cube Tangle". "Epic Hero Weapon Craft Masters" allows players to design and test weapons in combat, while "Cube Tangle" is a puzzle game focused on untangling knots. Their games are designed to be immersive, with a focus on both visual and auditory elements to engage players. The company also has ambitions to expand its reach by porting its games to other platforms like Steam, Xbox, PlayStation, Epic Games, and Nintendo, and is exploring opportunities within Web3 to facilitate this expansion.
