Make Money With Games
How do you make money from your game? The best way to make money from your game is to publish it on the game market, on the App Store or Google Play store, but if you aren’t well known in the gamers community it will be very hard to sell at the beginning, so you should consider seeking a sponsor to purchase the rights to your game and market it for you or  release your game for free and embed ads.
