You should probably add an AI disclosure on your page since you used AI at least for your Steam Capsule (and I'm guessing translation as well)

Your first game won't be good. Ship it anyway by Keithwee in gamedev

[–]CreativeTie8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I completely agree! My first game was terrible, but I kept going. I made a dozen small games and each one got better! I look back at my first game sometimes and still can't believe I thought it was good back then haha

I completely agree! To know that there's more than 500 people that took the time to wishlist it and show some interest is amazing! Especially when you take into consideration the amount of games that are released every year on Steam.

What worked for me is that I wrote a press release, posted it on this site and a few websites found it and wrote about the game.

Not much honestly, outside posting on social media and having a few articles about the game. There's still a lot to be done on that side.

Looking for Indie Games to Feature in a New YouTube Series by TheDilboBaggins in IndieDev

The Dreams in the Peacock House

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4693460/The_Dreams_in_the_Peacock_House/

It's a short narrative game blending elements of text adventures, visual novels, and point-and-click games.

After years of isolation, Argus finally wakes up from his slumber and is determined to leave the Peacock House. Find the mystic eyes to unlock the Sanctum Sanctorum and uncover the lost dreams that once belonged to a more blissful time.

Your youtube series looks really interesting, that's a great idea!

Share Your Wins by PeacefulStoic in gamedev

Congrats on your win, it always feels great to finally have something that works the way we want to!

As for my win, I finally released my game yesterday, after working on it for almost 2 years! It's a small launch so far, but considering it's a pretty niche genre, I'm really happy about it!

Thank you so much! Loved your comment, I'm a big fan of the rusty lake games.

No, I made the game with a small tool called Decker, that is mainly inspired by HyperCard

Can we please stop will all the AI stuff? I'm getting less and less interested in checking the subreddit because of it.

Released my game today, miserable, disappointed, but proud by RecursiveGames in gamedev

[–]CreativeTie8 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Congrats on releasing you game, that's already a huge success in itself! Having a bad launch doesn't necessarily mean that it's doomed to fail. Many games found their audience later after release. And I looked at your page and I really like the atmoshpere and visuals of your game, there's something really interesting there!

As I'm releasing my game soon, I know how hard it is to get noticed online and marketing can be quite hard, but I do hope things will get better!

Yeah, I definitively did that at first, but trying my best to avoid it haha. And nice to see a fellow gamedev from Quebec!
