Our pre-incubation program is completely online, production monitoring sessions, mentoring, training, pitching, interviews with professionals in the sector are 100% online.

We also use the Confluence platform as a documentary repository where we store almost all the transcripts of the mentoring, files, templates, recommended models for each task and in general all the Know-How of the team of mentors and teachers of Level Up as well as the recommendations and insights obtained by the participants of previous editions.
No, at the moment only developers with a residence permit from Spain or Spanish nationality can participate in our program.
It is not mandatory but highly recommended. It will be considered highly positive to have 4 roles that can be fully dedicated to these functions:
- Production

It is not mandatory to incorporate a company at the end of the program.
Level Up will encourage and help teams that pass the 50% audit of the program so that they are aware of the possibilities, requirements and good practices to do so. A binding partner agreement will be made between the members of the team, monitoring and planning so that the team ends up constituting its studio and making a medium-long term business plan. This shareholders’ agreement will serve to lay a solid and reliable legal foundation in case the team finally decides to incorporate as a company whenever it wishes.
Yes, it is possible.
It also depends on the project, the opinions of the mentoring team may recommend not doing it. Depending on the values of the game that the team wishes to make, we can recommend self-publishing, but it must be viable and feasible to be able to publish the project with its own resources and look for viable alternatives for PR, Marketing, Communication and Distribution actions.
