How Does DoonDookStudio Licensing Work?

Dec 23 2025

We at DoonDookStudio specialize in creating high-quality web (HTML5) games that can be used by publishers, gaming platforms, non-gaming platforms, entertainment companies, transportation, etc.

The reason that businesses trust us with their branded game is that building games from scratch can be costly, slow, and most of the time requires specialized expertise that not every team may have in-house.

Because of that, DoonDookStudio’s main collaboration model is to grant game licenses to its clients.

Licensing a game provides a quick, affordable, and straightforward process for adding games to products, campaigns, or platforms.

In this article, I will guide you through the different game licensing models our studio offers, clarify how each one works, and hopefully, help you choose the option that aligns best with your specific business goals.

What Types of Game Licenses Do We Offer?

Let’s go over the types of licenses DoonDookStudio offers. These options are designed to support different goals, usages, levels of distribution rights and ownership of the games.

Non-Exclusive License (Single Domain)

This is the most popular licensing option among our clients. Using this license, you can publish the game on a single project, app or platform.

It’s a one-time payment, and the usage right is permanent (perpetual). However, the resale of the game(s) is not allowed. You can also order a custom game with your preferred features and receive the non-exclusive license and the ready-to-publish game file.

Also, this license type is compliant with all of our services, such as reskin, white-label, API/SDK integration, localization, etc.

Non-Exclusive License (2 Domains)

Using this license, you can publish the game(s) on two distinct, separate projects, apps, or platforms.

For those businesses that are managing multiple platforms or versions of their service, this license type gives them flexibility while keeping the costs manageable.

Just like our single domain license, the rights are perpetual, but the resale of the games is not allowed. Custom game development is also available for this license type.

Non-Exclusive License (Unlimited Domains)

Managing more than 2 platforms? Our non-exclusive license for unlimited domains enables you to publish the game on as many platforms as you wish. It’s the perfect choice if you’re aiming for the maximum distribution flexibility.

However, just like our other non-exclusive licenses, the resale of the game remains prohibited, yet the usage freedom is unmatched.

Custom game development is available for this license type as well.

Exclusive License (Full Ownership)

Need a game that’s permanently yours? Our exclusive license will do the job for you. You can have full ownership of the game with full distribution, ownership, and resale rights. However, this license is only available for the games we haven’t sold their non-exclusive licenses.

It’s the perfect choice for those who want to order a custom game and need full ownership of the game. As mentioned, you can resell the game and publish on as many platforms as you wish.

How Does DoonDookStudio’s Licensing Process Work?

Due to our clients’ varying needs and preferences, we’ve worked over the years to make our licensing process as simple, efficient, and transparent as possible, delivering clients’ ready-to-launch games with minimal complexity.

Here’s how the licensing process at DoonDookStudio typically works:

1. Discovering Your Project’s Requirements

In this stage, we’ll need you to share with us the ideal project you have on your mind. That includes your target platform, the audience you’re serving, and genres/gameplays you’re looking for, as well as the specific requirements and customization preferences you have. If you’re unsure of the game you’re looking for, you can browse our Game Store. Alternatively, if you wish to discuss it with your team, our Game Catalog can help you.

We can move this stage either by email or an online meeting via Google Meet. The online meeting allows us to dive deeper into your project’s details; however, it’s your call.

Still not sure if our games will run smoothly? 

To assure you that our games perform flawlessly on your platform and to familiarize you with the integration process, you can Test Before You Buy, with a Sample Game.

2. Helping You Choose the Right License

After hearing your requirements, we’ll then suggest the most suitable licensing option and provide further explanation, if needed.
After that, we’ll settle on an agreement based on the games you chose and the license type you selected.

3. Preparing Your Game

Once the agreement is finalized, your game will be in the hands of our technical team.

It’s worth noting that all of our games are ready-to-publish, and if you’ve ordered the game without customization, we’ll deliver it almost instantly. On the other hand, if you’ve ordered customizations like white labeling, reskinning, integrating your API/SDK, or localizing the game, our technical team will implement the customizations and modify the game based on your requirements.

4. Ensuring the Highest Performance (Bug Fix & QA)

Our technical team will test the game’s performance and quality. Once approved internally, we’ll test it in your real environment to make sure its performance, compatibility, and user experience work flawlessly.

If we encounter any issues during this stage, our technical team will fix them.

5. Delivering the Game & Providing Support

The game has been thoroughly reviewed and tested. Now is the time to deliver the ready-to-publish game file with a technical guide on how to publish it on your platform (with a video tutorial included).

However, we’re not finished yet. We remain available to support you up to 6 months for any unseen bugs encountered or minor adjustments.

The Bottom Line

At DoonDookStudio, we believe that the game your users play should be of the highest quality, and to achieve that in a simple, straightforward manner, we offer different licensing options that you can choose based on your goals.

Additionally, we’ve designed our licensing process to be as helpful, clear, and professional as possible to never miss any details about your project.

In any case, if you ever have any questions about our licenses and our licensing process, you can either read our FAQ or alternatively, Contact Us, and we’ll get back to you within a few hours to address them.
