Melvin Frank is Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Sidekick Publishing, an indie game publisher based in Berlin-Spandau.

Before that, he worked at INSTINCT3, today’s sister company of Sidekick and the influencer and creative agency behind creators and brands such as HandOfBlood, where he supported New Ventures projects within the wider company group and built the publishing division that later became Sidekick. As a full-service publisher for indie games, Sidekick combines classic publishing with creator and content DNA. Its focus is on clearly positioning indie games, identifying their streamability and content potential, and turning that into campaigns with a strong emphasis on content creators and their communities.

Previous projects include Deadly Days: Roadtrip, Dwarves: Glory, Death and Loot, and Wanderburg.
