The Story of Transformice: An Indie Game with 70 Million Players

In this 2017 GDC talk, Atelier 801's Melanie Christin takes you through the journey of scaling a prototype of Transformice done in 3 weeks into a 70 million players MMO over the course of 6 years. Learn about the pleasant surprises of an overnight success and the pitfalls when games as a service catch you unaware.

GDC talks cover a range of developmental topics including game design, programming, audio, visual arts, business management, production, online games, and much more.
