In June, Lumikai hosted the inaugural edition of Pixels Pitch Day, bringing together early-stage founders building across games, gaming x AI, gaming-tech, and AR/VR/MR, pitching for an investment of up to $250K from our Pixels pre-seed program.


The event received over 150 applications from across India, with six companies shortlisted to pitch before a jury comprising Salone Sehgal, Founder & Managing Partner, Lumikai; Akshat Rathee, Co-founder & Managing Director, NODWIN Gaming; Sean Hyunil Sohn, CEO, KRAFTON India; Tomoharu Urabe, Managing Director, MIXI Global Investments India; Oliver Jones, Co-founder & CEO, Bombay Play; and Ramakrishna Reddy, Co-founder & CEO, QuriousBit. More than 40 founders, operators, and ecosystem participants attended the showcase and community mixer.


The event resulted in two investments: Yum Yum Labs, a casual gaming studio and SwaVid, a gamified interactive edtech platform for school kids, reinforcing our conviction that India's earliest-stage founders are building ambitious products across gaming and interactive media. We will be sharing more on these startups as deals head to closure.

I enjoyed reading this because the information feels simple and well organized. geometry dash is an interesting choice for people who enjoy rhythm-based platform games. The different stages challenge players to time jumps, avoid obstacles, and remember patterns. Making progress after repeated attempts can be satisfying and keeps the gameplay engaging from one level to the next.

Para mí, uno de los principales beneficios de una buena fuente internacional es la organización. Consultar loteria mundiales resulta mucho más cómodo cuando los resultados aparecen separados por fecha, país y sorteo, permitiendo encontrar rápidamente el dato que interesa y regresar después a información anterior.

Congrats to all the winners at Pixels Pitch Day! It’s always inspiring to see early teams get a stage, sharpen their stories, and connect with people who can help them grow. The mix of thesis, people, and portfolio updates makes this kind of event feel less like a demo day and more like a real community milestone. For anyone who loves quick daily brain breaks between pitches, I’ve been hooked on play unlimited word ladders with no daily limit. Endless puzzles, no waiting, and no download—perfect for a five-minute reset.

Congrats to the Pixels Pitch Day winners! It's always fascinating to see which ideas cut through — usually the ones built around a loop you can grasp in seconds. That's the same reason geo-guessing games keep pulling me back: no tutorial, no setup, just drop into a random street and start reasoning. Between reading these pitch recaps, https://playworldguesser.com/ is a fun free break, unlimited rounds and no sign-up. Curious whether any of this year's winning teams built something similarly instant to pick up.
