IP & game strategy
We get to know your characters and their audience, then shape a game around what makes your world special. If you already have games, we can help decide where to take them next.
About YumYum Games
Games for the characters kids love.
We’re a mobile game studio founded by former ZeptoLab executives. We help entertainment partners turn familiar stories into worlds children can explore for themselves.
What we do
From the first idea to life after launch.
Game development
Our designers and developers take the idea from the first playable prototype through production and testing. You see how your characters look, move and feel along the way.
Publishing & operations
We prepare the store launch, plan monetisation and use analytics to understand how people play. After release, we keep the game fresh with updates and new content.
Our leadership
The people you’ll work with.
Our team helped build and grow games played by millions. Before YumYum, we worked across game design, technology, analytics and character franchises spanning games and animation.

Our partnership model
A shared investment in your game.
Up to50%
of game production costs can be co-financed by YumYum.
You own your IP.
You retain ownership of your characters and creative control over their world. We bring the team, investment and ongoing support.
Find the right game
Together we explore what fans love about your IP and where play could take it. Your team works directly with our studio leads to choose the concept and audience.
Agree the investment
We agree the production budget, each partner’s contribution and how we will share revenue. Our investment can cover up to half of the game’s production costs.
Build and launch
YumYum leads development, testing and release. You guide how your characters and world are portrayed and give creative approval throughout production.
Grow together
We run the game after launch, learn from players and plan updates together. That gives us a basis for reaching new audiences, growing revenue and exploring the next game.
