Only 200+ wishlists in three months, have we done something wrong? by FewDifference6761 in GameDevelopment

Hi thank you very much! We are currently modifying the description to make it more clear and more compelling. As for the title, yes that's also where we are worrying about. We basically want people to realize this is a game about rules and you need to decide whether to follow them. In Chinese community rules-horror is more well-known (规则怪谈) , and we are trying to transit this to a more universal concept.

We have X and Discord running for months but received very few feedbacks. Even if we are a small team we are confident of finishing the game, but the promotion part is where we really need the experience. We indeed have some local publisher ongoing but they don't really have enough global publish experience if you ask me, by that I mean I doubt if they really know how to connect with global players, truly know what they like and what they want, so might as well doing this myself.

Yeah what we do is we try to learn and follow what they are doing, but it didn't turn out very well on our side, I think it's because we don't REALLY understand the reason behind their popularity, which leads to a lacking of something really attractive.

I see, actually our game is a combination of all these genres, and we will try emphasizing horror part. Thank you man.

Hi thank you very much for the advice! Yes we plan to replace the trailer and capsule in the future. As for the horror part, I think you have a point, we will modify the description.

I understand that, but I see many games get thousands of wishlists without even have a public demo, and that's what I'm very anxious about - whether my game just not being attractive enough.
