- Joystick Labs was a mentorship-driven accelerator program focused on identifying and launching digitally distributed video game companies. The company provided independent game developers with early-stage seed funding, mentoring, education and networking. Joystick Labs took equity in the companies, but studios kept some creative control and ownership of the intellectual property. The video game industry shifting to digitally distributed games has lowered the barriers to entry and required funding for an independent studio. Joystick Labs helps studios develop their digitally distributed game and enter the market with their knowledge of the industry. Teams at Joystick Labs took part in a three-month course where they work towards commercial success by learning from mentors with video game industry experience. Based in Durham, N.C., Joystick Labs teams worked at offices located in the American Tobacco Campus. (en)
