We've been building in public since day one, and none of that would mean much without the people who showed up early, built things, broke things, told us what wasn't working, and kept coming back anyway. That kind of early belief in a platform is rare, and we wanted to find a real way to honor it.
So we built the RUN Founders Program!
The first 100 creators to build a game on RUN and reach 100 plays earn lifetime Founder status (excluding your plays as a creator). As a Founding Creator, you'll get a preferred revenue share for life (80% vs the standard 70%), direct access to the team through a private VIP channel, and a seat at the table in quarterly Founders Council sessions where you'll vote on roadmap priorities. You'll also carry a permanent "Founding 100" badge on your RUN profile, get your games featured on RUN's social channels, and be first in line for beta access to major features before they go public.
To claim your spot, follow these steps:
- Build and publish your game on RUN.game
- Post a link to your published game in the #showcase channel of RUN’s Discord
- Get your game to 100 plays
There's a live tracker at the top of Discord showing how many spots are left, and when it hits zero, the program closes for good. It won't reopen, so this is your chance to get in early and reap the rewards.
One thing worth knowing about what counts: we're not looking for masterpieces. A 60-second platformer, a simple idle clicker, a walking simulator, something weird and experimental that only makes sense to you. If a player can enter the world and do something, it's a game. What won't make the cut is empty baseplates, raw asset flips with no real modifications, 1:1 IP infringement, or builds that crash on load.
Genuine effort is the bar, not perfection. We love weird, strange, niche content, so if you have an idea you’ve been shy about making, this is your moment.
Get out there and build something! We can’t wait to see it.
