ALWAYS stay friendly with Valve
Before Steam came along, dealing with mainstream publishers was a nightmare; ““they’d offer crap deals, terrible percentages, and remove anything unique whilst taking the intellectual property for themselves.” The Tripwire boys, fresh from winning Make Something Unreal, couldn’t find a contract they would sign. Then they saw Valve’s new Steam platform. John contacted Doug Lombardi (Valve’s marketing and PR director) and he responded; he knew about Red Orchestra and wanted to talk, giving them a very good deal. That was the turning point. Red Orchestra was the second or third non-Valve game on Steam. Since then, Tripwire have continued to work with Valve and say “We’ll always be Steam fanboys. ” The friendliness, the help and the amazingly reasonable percentages – all mean it pays to stay friendly with Valve.
