Xhai Studios co-founder and president Otto Von Nostitz wants to revolutionise the way we consume and pay for apps and in-game content, by providing an alternative to the Google Play Store and Apple App Store duopoly. 

The Malaysian-born Canadian has set up a new distribution platform called Xarcade. According to Von Nostitz, Xarcade allows game and apps developers and publishers to keep a bigger share of the profits as it only takes a 1% to 2% cut of the sales price, compared to Google and Apple, that take as much as 30%.
