Resource recheck, 8 November 2026 (UTC): Jakarta-based Yellow Hearts is still accepting indie game pitches for 2027 releases through its live submission form. This is an availability refresh, not a newly opened call. The publisher describes its focus as bringing Southeast Asian indie games to a global audience, with mentorship, funding and distribution among the support it may provide.
The form says it will review promising indie titles regardless of genre. It does not state a geographic eligibility rule, so developers outside Indonesia should not assume either acceptance or exclusion.
Prepare the decision-making material
Required fields cover the game and studio name, website, one-sentence pitch, development funding request in USD, pitch-deck link, playable-build link and an estimated release date. Teams must also explain why the project and team fit the publisher. Gameplay footage, current Steam wishlists, store page and social links are optional.
Clarification, 8 November 2026: the funding field explicitly excludes marketing and localization. Keep those costs separate from the development amount requested in that field; our earlier checklist omitted that distinction.
This is a practical checklist for an Indonesian team preparing to pitch: show the playable game, make the requested budget understandable, and use a realistic schedule rather than an optimistic one. Test every private link from a signed-out browser before submitting.
What is not specified
The public form does not announce a closing date, application fee, response time, funding range or publishing-deal terms. Availability is therefore listed without an exact deadline. A form submission is only a request for review, not a funding or publishing commitment; evaluate any later agreement on its own terms.
Read the complete official pitch form before sharing project material. Wumbo Games did not submit a pitch or contact the publisher.
