What does it take for an indie studio founded by someone with no game design experience to achieve 100 million downloads?

Our guest in today’s episode is Sheetal Bairamadgi. Sheetal is the founder of Crikey, a game studio based in Sydney. Sheetal began her career as a digital marketing manager, and after working with a number of apps during her tenure as Chief Marketing Officer at Leadbolt, Sheetal decided to start her own gaming studio, Crikey. Crikey has a number of games to its credit, and the most popular one is Phone Case DIY which got 100 million downloads within a couple months of release.

In today’s episode, Sheetal takes us through the journey of how she envisioned Crikey and how she and her team refined the processes of their ideation and research from their early games that got lukewarm responses to their first big hit. This conversation again proves that it is possible to build hit games by focusing on research, processes and data, even if you don’t have much formal game design experience.
