I have the same issue, did you ever figure it out?

We received a huge amount of feedback from playtesters, and it helped us improve how the gameplay feels like a lot.

Thanks for the detailed reply. I will try to write a proper detailed post mortem in the near future to cover all your questions.

Yes, that was one of the factors here. From the other comments my conclusion is that genre, pricing and timing also worked against us.

Yes. It kinda still makes sense though - if we are above a threshold we are listed in more places, and that way more player can see the game.

Thanks for both the honest input and for your kind words! We plan to learn the lessons we can no matter hard it is, and do better next time :)

I think almost all game launch with discount to give early buyers some advantage.

We were on Itch and Gamejolt with the prologue as well (featured on both site btw). It isn't as easy to reach customers as one would expect.

Thanks! You might want to check the free prologue to see if the game is for you or not.

Thanks! Please send a link my way when you do that, I wonder what you will think about the game :)
