This calculator models what could happen, not what will happen. Startups — especially B2C games — do not grow linearly, and sustained compound growth at any rate is never guaranteed. Actual outcomes depend on execution, market conditions, retention, competition, and many factors not modeled here. Dilution from future funding rounds is not reflected — your ownership percentage will decrease with subsequent raises. This is not financial advice.
