Lo que hace Dropleaf

Dropleaf is a response to an industry that could be so much better than it is. They want to provide everyone with a never ending stream of transformative experiences, but doing that is going to require us to change the space around games. Players need to be able to find the experiences that feel made for them, and the community around those games has to be welcoming and inclusive. Independent developers, meanwhile, need a way to improve discoverability, extend their revenue stream and find a space in which content is rewarded based on quality, not marketing budget. They are working to fix every one of those problems. They have built a discovery system that’s going to help you find games you truly love. Our community is a work in progress, but you can learn more on our blog. And our library is going to keep growing, so that when you finish one great game, you’ll find another that you’d swear was made with you in mind.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work in Seattle, WA, and after YC the company would remain based here.

Seattle is where we live, with strong local connections and a good tech community, so it makes sense for us to stay there during and after YC.
