A little Australian optimism

Good things
grow from
good work.

You’ve made something good. Let’s see what else it can do.

We buy and license codebases and project materials, helping studios and makers find fresh value in work they already own.

What’s my project worth?

Big ideas. Small projects. All welcome.

Good work has a second life

Made with care.
Still full of possibility.

That game you shipped. The prototype you parked. The tools you built along the way. There’s a lot of good work sitting in folders. We help it find its next chapter.

Code with a story

Finished games, side projects, prototypes and studio-built tools. Big, small, polished or parked.

Something a little different?

Other original data or useful project materials? Tell us what you’ve made. We’d love to take a look.

Tell us about it

A little of what you’ve made. A little of what’s next.

Easy does it

A conversation.
A plan. A fresh start.

  1. 1

    Tell us what you’ve got

    Our short appraisal starts with a few details. A non-confidential overview or small sample is welcome, but completely optional.

  2. 2

    Find the right fit

    We explore the opportunity together, then put the scope, intended use and payment in plain writing.

  3. 3

    Give good work somewhere to go

    Once you’re happy with the agreement, we arrange the handover and take care of the preparation.

Good people. Clear agreements.

Your work.
Your call.

We’re here to make something good happen, together.

A fair offer, in writing

A fixed fee, a share of licensing revenue or an ongoing partnership. We’ll work out what fits and agree the details with you.

You choose what’s included

One project or a few. We agree exactly which materials and rights are part of the arrangement before anything changes hands.

A little care goes a long way

Confidentiality comes before a detailed review. Any sample is limited to what you’re comfortable sharing and have the right to provide.

A LITTLE CLARITY

Good questions.
Honest answers.

Your work. Your next chapter.
Let’s make the possibilities clear.

What kinds of projects are you looking for?

Anything from full games and prototypes to gameplay systems, shaders, animations, tools and plugins. We work with Unity, Unreal, Godot, Blender, Rust, TypeScript and more.

How much can I get paid?

Smaller projects can range from A$200 to A$10,000. Substantial company-owned codebases can be worth A$60,000 or more. Value depends on complexity, quality, contents, rights and fit. Every project is evaluated individually; these figures are possibilities, not guaranteed offers.

Does my project need to be finished?

No! We consider finished games, unfinished projects, game jams, university assignments, prototypes and work-in-progress builds.

What will my projects be used for?

Your code and project files may be used to train code-generation models that help developers with time-consuming tasks like shaders, animations, gameplay mechanics and other technical workflows, so more time can be spent on the creative work.

Do I have to give up ownership of my game?

No! We offer licensing arrangements where you can retain commercial rights and continue developing, publishing and selling your game. Outright purchases are also possible, with rights agreed separately.

Can I keep working on my game?

Yes, under suitable licensing arrangements. You can continue building and commercialising your game while licensing your existing work to Goodwattle.

How do I get started?

Share a brief description of your project, its tech stack, and ideally a GitHub link or demo. We’ll take a look and discuss what it might be worth.

Let’s see what grows

Something good
starts with g’day.
