Free-to-play publisher Tilting Point has acquired terraforming simulator TerraGenesis <\/em>from Edgeworks Entertainment for an undisclosed fee. <\/p>\n

The deal will see Tilting Point take over TerraGenesis’ <\/em>mobile and PC development with “creative counsel” from Edgeworks, which will remain brand licensor moving forward. <\/p>\n

Tilting Point has been helping to market and distribute TerraGenesis <\/em>since 2017, and has seen the title increase its average gross revenue to $350,000 per month while surpassing 21 million downloads. <\/p>\n

Moving forward, Tilting Point president Samir Agili indicated the company wouldn’t be rocking the boat, but rather building on the foundations that are already in place.<\/p>\n

“TerraGenesis<\/em> is a fantastic case study that not only showcases the value and success of collaboration, but also the impact of thinking outside the box when creating a completely niche and unique title,\u201d commented Agili in a press release.<\/p>\n

“This acquisition is an organic next step in our progressive publishing relationship with Edgeworks. With TerraGenesis<\/em>, our goal is to build on what already makes the game a hit within its community, all while growing its revenue and fan base using our proprietary tools and expert teams.”<\/p>\n

The TerraGenesis <\/em>deal is the latest in a recent string of acquisitions for Tilting Point, with the company having also picked up developer Plamee Studio<\/a>, the assets of publisher FTX Games<\/a>, and Star Trek Timelines<\/a><\/em> over the past few months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
