Co-Founder, Minit Games - The open platform for short-form play
We're starting something new. Today we're taking Minit Games out of stealth. We raised $2M in Pre-Seed funding from Lvp and Sony Innovation Fund, alongside some of the best minds in gaming: Stefan Klemm, Timo Soininen, and Klaas Kersting. So what are we building? Gaming is the last major media format still stuck in stores. Players scroll feeds all day, but to play a game you still have to search, download, and wait. That friction is a problem for players and a disaster for creators. The top 1% of publishers take 92% of the revenue. Everyone else is invisible. We think that's about to change. AI tools are enabling a new generation of creators to build playable experiences faster than ever. But there's no home for that content. No feed. No discovery layer. No place where a quirky 60-second game can find its audience. That's Minit. A feed of instantly playable HTML5 games, powered by an AI recommendation engine, open to any creator. We're a small team in Hamburg, preparing for our invite-only Alpha. If you're a creator who wants to build for the feed, or just curious about what we're doing, I'd love to hear from you.
