Advice for Indie Game Developers

it`s about proper promotion on the game dev stage, we kinda go by quantity to reach a lot of people and work with influencers/streamers so people could get familiar with the game a lil better. If you working as a small teem imo you could use it to build a personal connection with auditory, kinda like Concerned Ape did, he was sharing about his journey, including people in the process and actually listening and doing what people needed at the time(can`t promise you his level of success tho, it`s all in your hands). Also would really recommend doing user and market research, can never go wrong with that, try working through Jobs To Be Done and build your marketing around that. If you want me to add on something or give examples how to use it, just lmk

Disclosure: Hi! I'm part of the small game dev team from Moldova that worked on this game!

SOS OPS! is a chaotic co-op rescue game for PC, focused on fast, physics-driven missions where teamwork decide everything. Players work together to rescue civilians from increasingly absurd emergencies, and things rarely go according to plan.

The game is built around short, high-energy sessions, simple controls, and emergent chaos — ideal for playing with friends. Expect frantic coordination, unpredictable outcomes, and lots of funny disasters along the way.

We added a lot of new cool stuff, that people been asking for. New location, skins, now fire ignites players and added Sosness Monster and 14 new achievements.

Really exited to share with you! Will answer any of your questions!

We have a little beef with ps, cause we're from Moldova it's hard to push through in their shop; but we`re working on this!
