Selling your game for money is one way of monetizing your game, out of many. Parent says they want to monetize the game, and then outlines in what ways they find it acceptable to do so. "Monetization" isn't strictly about IAPs, ads and deceptive subscriptions, although many developers seem to default to monetizing games in those ways.

- diggan 2y agoI dunno, I've heard it in the "How the thing makes money" context for both games and startups, where a common question to someone who just built a MVP could be "How are you planning to monetize it?", even thought shady ads/practices isn't on anyones mind.
