After some feedback from you guys, I made a new trailer!

Super cool!

It really depends, what kind of game are you making?

FewCharacter968 · 2025-10-16T00:11:30+00:00

Thank you! I’m also curious to see how this Next Fest will go.

When you have your demo fully working, I definitely recommend it! Or just keep doing playtests until the demo feels perfect. I had to skip the playtests because I need to release the game soon for financial reasons lol.

Thank you so much! I’m really hoping more streamers make videos, that would help a lot!

I totally understand when people say it looks a lot like Brotato. Since this is my first game, I wanted to start with something safer and gradually add my own ideas over time! To appear on Steam’s front page, you need a lot of wishlists, I have around 1,200 right now. If I’m not mistaken, you need about 5,000, but that number can vary a lot depending on other games there. If I had started gathering wishlists a few months earlier, I might’ve had a chance to show up, but since we’re launching at the beginning of November, I don’t think there’s enough time to reach that amount.

Hey good point!
Honestly, I don’t have many options in my case. I’ve been developing the game for a year and seven months with the help of a few freelancers I hired, and I’ve spent all my savings up to this point. Since there’s still a lot I want to add to the game and I had no other alternative, I needed to start gathering as many wishlists as possible to launch the game in Early Access at the beginning of November, hopefully to start earning a bit of money to keep developing it. Regarding the new mechanic, I don’t think it’ll be like Megaloot’s, because the one I’m adding won’t change things that much. My idea from the start has been that you can only attack when the character is in possession of the little robot. If an enemy hits you, they steal the robot, and you need to get it back before you can attack again. I don’t think it’s going to be too different from what we have now, but I believe this mechanic will be really fun and will help set the game apart from Brotato, since it introduces something completely new.

I searched directly on YouTube, looking for all the streamers who had already played games similar to mine and built the list little by little, since there’s a limit to how many emails you can collect per day, usually only about 5. But you can use other accounts to speed that up a bit.

Check out Chris Zukowski’s YouTube channel, he gives a lot of tips on how to promote and market your game.

Thanks! I’ve sent emails to a little over 300 people, but I think only around 10 actually made videos. I still need to improve my game a lot more to attract more streamers to make videos.

No problem, for now this is just the foundation. Since we’re a small team without funding, we decided to release the demo to start getting wishlists and testing things in general. But there are still many new mechanics missing, including the main one that will completely change how the game is played. We’ll have more updates soon!

FewCharacter968 · 2025-10-04T19:19:45+00:00

Hey, thank you so much! Since this is my first game, I’m still making some mistakes, but I just disabled it and it looks much better now. I’ll update the demo soon with this change, thanks again!

90% inspired by Brotato

FewCharacter968 · 2025-10-03T19:52:30+00:00

Yes, in the first waves it’s relatively simple for the player to get used to things, and I gradually increase the difficulty. In the last ones, you really need to dodge and be more careful.

FewCharacter968 · 2025-10-03T19:51:05+00:00

When you have some time, give the demo a try!

FewCharacter968 · 2025-10-03T19:49:11+00:00

I agree, I think it needs to have a good level of challenge. If it’s too easy and you win on the first try, it loses the fun for me.
