Wondering about the question above.
I mean as a writer, not a buyer.
Also how long are the games for each price? I assume there would be a range
This information is out of date. They found it necessary to raise prices across the board a few years ago to keep up with inflation, and with extremely high word counts becoming common, they added at least one higher pricing tier than they had had previously. (Heart’s Choice games aren’t all free anymore, either.)
Do you happen to know the new pricing/word count?
To my knowledge the exact pricing tiers haven’t been released, although it wouldn’t be too difficult to figure them out pretty closely by comparing prices to word counts.
I’m not sure what you mean about how pricing works for a writer. The HG staff are the ones who set the price, and it’s generally based on word count, although the author can express a preference and they’ll take it into account. Your royalty percentage is the same regardless of the price of your game, 25% of revenue after app store fees.
