Jakarta –
Apart from the domination of famous game developers like Riot, Blizzard, EA, Rockstar, and many more, it turns out that there are several local developers who are also shining. One of them Gamecom Teamwhich successfully launched an action game titled Troublemaker.
Starting to be developed in 2020, the game has successfully attracted the attention of many players, when the trailer and demo were first released. Even though he had experienced several obstacles, Reza Febri Nanda as CEO and Founder, was finally able to complete his third game.
This game will be released at the end of March 2023 on PC via Steam, Epic Games, and Gog.com. The process of spreading it to the public was assisted by a foreign publisher called Freedom Games.
Troublemaker Manufacturing Process
Nanda said that the plan was to make it at the end of 2020, the first to be introduced with the name Parakacuk, not Troublemaker. Here he explained, at that time he did not immediately develop it, but did market research first.
This man from Pacitan admitted that the reference for making Troublemaker was from a game Yakuza. According to him at that time he had not found an alternative game similar to the Yakuza.
“That’s why this is a great opportunity if we can fill that void. That’s why every media report about Parakacuk (Troublemaker) says indie Yakuza. High school yakuza is the point,” said Nanda.
From the market research they did, the foundation of the new game refers to the Yakuza. But for the theme, Nanda prefers things related to school.
“Then we talked about the theme, what theme if we announced it would immediately boom. At that time, gamers asked where Bully 2 was going. So, let’s just use the school theme,” explained Nanda.
It’s just that it doesn’t end there, together with his team, Nanda still needs other important elements that can boost his popularity. Trobulemaker. Here they include an element that can be said to be quite controversial in the ears of the Indonesian people.
After everything was neatly arranged, it was only before the turn of the year at the end of 2020 that Troublemaker began to work on it. The demo development time was relatively short, given that Nanda had limited funds.
“We really have to be fast, because funds are limited. Capital from the first two games. At that time, we only had half a year of company life,” said Nanda.
After getting the result data from the demo, Gamecom Team began to seriously work on Troublemaker. Each milestone was successfully met.
Lack of Funds, Nanda Goes to Work
But unfortunately after deciding to get serious, during the manufacturing process, the company has yet to get a deal from the publisher. From there, Nanda finally looked for additional money to keep the Gamecom Team alive.
He returned to freelance work, in order to get capital support so that his company could continue to operate. Coincidentally, he is still actively working on several projects.
“The money earned was for the Gamecom Team. Not for me. Until I finally got a publisher deal. I can’t mention the details of the contract, the point is that the publisher deal can continue Troublemaker until it’s released,” said Nanda.
Global Troublemaker
Troublemaker is finally officially released on March 31, 2023. Gamers around the world can play it on PC via Steam, Epic Games Storeand Gog.com.
Even so, there are some gamers who think that their latest game is not good enough. But not a few who give positive reviews.
This can be seen through the official website Steam, of which 608 players left a Very Positive review. Plus, the negative ratings from some people don’t really affect sales from Troublemaker.
Because Nanda revealed that the target of the publisher can be fulfilled. Even the results exceeded their expectations.
“Our success is when all our goals are achieved. Troublemaker sales have returned on the second day, and our publisher admits that this is a success. It’s very fortunate,” concluded Nanda.
Nanda mentioned that most of the gamers who play this game come from outside. It’s just that Nanda did not provide detailed data.
