Felicity Games, a burgeoning casual game developer and publisher, has secured $700,000 in pre-seed funding from a notable group of investors. The funding round was led by DeVC and Visceral Capital, with participation from angel investors including Kunal Shah of CRED, former Nazara CEO Manish Agarwal, and Swiggy co-founders Sriharsha Majety and Nandan Reddy. Sameer Pittalwala, head of gaming at Google Cloud (APAC), also joined the round.
Felicity Games, founded in 2023 by ex-Swiggy executive Anurag Choudhary, aims to mobilize the indie game development ecosystem by producing high-quality game prototypes. The company has recently launched two titles, “Seek & Find” and “Nova Solitaire,” which have started to gain traction in the casual gaming market.
“I believe Felicity has a vision to mobilize the ecosystem of indie developers with the capability of producing high-quality game prototypes,” said Divyanshi Chowdhary, founding member of DeVC. “Felicity aims to combine an objective approach to commercial testing with iterations on non-conventional channels to drive risk-adjusted growth for new IPs, unlocking developer-friendly publishing for the indie ecosystem.”
The funding will enable Felicity Games to further develop its platform and expand its portfolio of casual games. The company’s mission is to create a developer-friendly environment that supports indie game creators in bringing their ideas to market.
This investment marks a significant milestone for Felicity Games as it looks to establish itself as a key player in the casual gaming industry. With the backing of experienced investors from the tech and gaming sectors, the company is poised for substantial growth and innovation in the coming years.
