As far as I understand, Hong Kong has this Offshore Tax Exemption, where your earnings will be tax-exempt as long as you can demonstrate that your earnings are from foreign sources (i.e., offshore sources outside of Hong Kong).

Thanks for the advise, we do have some full screen ads, but use it conservatively. It is always more satisfying getting revenues through in app purchases since it’s a sign that people value what I’ve created

I built a Charades-game [1] for both iOS [2] and Android [3]. Launched last year and just recently got to around 2k a month, some months like December are of course better than let's say September because of holidays like New Year etc.

It took about 10-12 months reaching those numbers, and I'd say we still have lot's of room for improvement. It's also very low maintenance, but highly scalable. What I do is basically localise the game to as many big languages as I can, and then throw some ASO on it and hold my fingers. Haven't spent any dollars at all on the marketing otherwise.

Show HN: I made a cozy picture puzzle game

My friend pitched me this game idea a couple of months ago. After creating a prototype and having friends try it out, we all found it to be quite fun, so I made this simple game for iOS and Android.

Happy to hear what you think. What would make the game more long term engaging and fun?

The pictures are mostly taken from Unsplash, but I’m thinking about incorporating either AI generated pictures or/and letting people send their pictures and get the chance to get their picture selected as a “daily featured”-puzzle.

The link will take you either to the Google Play Store or the iOS App Store based on the OS you’re using.
