Retention-Focused Game Development
- Prioritize retention early on in game development, especially for ad-based games.
- Focus on retention first, then monetization will follow, unlike subscription apps.
Prioritize ASO and ASA
- Start with ASO and basic Apple Search Ads campaigns for paid user acquisition.
- These require less team effort than Meta or TikTok, and ASA offers higher ROI due to search intent.
