A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 307

Facing Tristan's relentless pursuit, Drakengard Games was struggling. Tristan had even issued a "kill order", leading to their flagship product being removed from major gaming app stores. With their cash flow drying up, the company was on the brink of collapse.

To save the company, Patrick and Jack planned to seek help from Pentime Group.

As a tech giant valued at hundreds of billions of dollars, Pentime Group had the power to rival Sandalwood Group in the gaming industry. Its massive user base could provide crucial support to Drakengard Games.

If they could secure a partnership with Pentime Group, Drakengard Games would gain access to a much larger audience, potentially resolving its current crisis.

However, collaborating with Pentime Group was no easy feat.

With its near-monopoly in the gaming industry, Pentime Group was known for imposing harsh terms on its partners.

Traditionally, revenue splits between game developers and distributors were 50-50, but Pentime, leveraging its immense scale and user base, often demanded an 80-20 or even 90-10 split in its favor.

This was one of the reasons Drakengard Games had previously avoided partnering with Pentime Group.

Fortunately, Pentime Group showed interest in Drakengard Games and arranged a meeting with one of its senior executives, Wendy Trader.

It was rumored that Wendy was the daughter of Pentime Group's CEO. Currently studying at Harverd Business School, she had already taken charge of Pentime's gaming operations.

However, at their first meeting, Wendy made sure to put Patrick and Jack in their place. She kept them waiting in the reception room for half an hour before finally making her entrance.

Despite her tall figure, striking beauty, and undeniable elegance, her aloof demeanor and the icy indifference in her gaze made her intimidating.

She sat down without the slightest hint of an apology and went straight to business.

After all, Drakengard Games was now a leading player in the industry. Yet, Pentime Group was treating them like some insignificant small-time developer? Unbelievable!

Jack, though calmer, still looked grim.

The standard industry split was already a steep 80-20, but as a well-established brand, Drakengard Games deserved better treatment. A 90-10 split put them on the same level as nameless indie studios.

However, Wendy remained unfazed. She had fully expected their reaction—but it didn't matter, because she had Drakengard Games right where she wanted them.

She crossed her legs and glanced at them with a condescending smirk, her tone filled with mockery.

"That's the terms. Whether you accept or not is entirely up to you."
