Making a game should cost an afternoon, not a year.

Every studio has the same folder. It is full of games that were built, polished, shipped, and then met an audience that did not care. Months of work, and the thing that would have told you was a two day test you could not run until the game already existed.

That order is backwards, and it is backwards for a boring reason: making the thing was expensive. Building a prototype meant an engine, a toolchain, an artist, and weeks. So nobody prototyped ten ideas. They picked one and hoped.

Tapugo exists to put the cheap part first.

Describe a game, or show us forty five seconds of one, and you have something playable in minutes. Argue with it until it is fun. Turn it into a native mobile game with a click. Put it on the App Store and Google Play. Then spend twenty dollars finding out whether strangers tap it, and how far they get when they do.

The whole loop, in a day, for the price of a lunch. Not so you ship more games. So you can afford to be wrong about nine of them and right about the tenth.
