New York, New York – VoxPop Games, Inc., a new peer-to-peer games distribution & development platform, is pleased to announce that gaming industry veteran Douglas Kennedy joined the board as its Executive Chairman. In this role, Kennedy will share his life-long passion for entrepreneurship, his strong indie game network and proven leadership to the innovative VoxPop platform.
“Doug’s deep experience working with a plethora of successful indie games, helping them find the resources they need to be successful while focusing on their creative, passion projects is invaluable to our budding platform,” stated Charles Yu, Founder and CEO of VoxPop Games. “Profit sharing agreements used to be common for indie game studios, but they are a logistical nightmare. Financial trust issues, accounting issues – how do you know the developer will pay you what you’re owed? VoxPop automates that process, and with our next title Outer Terror, we’ll prove we can do it regardless of point of sale – Steam, Epic, Itch, or wherever else.”
“I am honored to join the VoxPop team. I already saw the need for a service like this when I was getting Studio Wildcard off the ground and we were implementing employee profit sharing,” said Kennedy. “I think it’s proof that not just indie, but enterprise customers alike will want this service. Charles and his co-founder Marc Rodriguez have built a very impressive games platform in only a couple years. I already told them: this is the best video game idea I’ve ever heard that isn’t a video game.”
The company had a humble first closing on the fund and is ready to gear up to raising a larger final closing alongside its new equity fundraising campaign. For more information about VoxPop and its platform, please visit www.voxpopgames.com.

About VoxPop Games
VoxPop, is a game distribution and development platform, and aims to develop middleware tools which allow developers to use revenue shares in their game as an asset. VoxPop primarily caters to independent developers who may struggle with payroll or marketing costs. Developers can promise a share of their profits to those who recommend their games, allowing them to drive their own affiliate marketing campaigns. Influencers can generate their own user affiliate link which can go anywhere a Patreon or Ko-Fi might. Developers can also use Profit-Sharing to find collaborators to help them develop the game. Shares can be used to bring in contractors who will be paid in dividends once the product reaches the market. VoxPop aims to disrupt the gaming market by creating systems for smaller content creators to prop up one another.
