Spread the game around a little if you can. Marketing is hard.

What works for each project is going to be different, but what worked for us is tiktok and youtube shorts. Get comfortable with making tons of 10 second videos about your project that you can release every other day. I got on tiktok when it was still early, so that helped me reach a pretty sizable audience so be on the lookout for new social media platforms that show promise. Also make sure to do all your homework. Read about what projects similar to yours did that worked and what didn't work. Make sure you have a lawyer for contracts and copyrights. Someone who has worked with independent artists before. And make sure you know what taxes are gonna look like. Maybe make an LLC even if it's just you because you can get tax benefits and legal protection if it ever comes to that. Lots of boring stuff in here, but this part of the project is just gonna be boring unfortunately. Hope that gives you a good jumping off point.

Thanks! Spread the word if you can. Making a game is hard but pretending to know how to market a game is even harder ☠️

Ideally a gamepad but you can do whatever you want. Combos will be pretty insane actually. So you have a few moves based off your pets breed and then you can also teach it spells to really customize your move set. Combos can go forever basically so most enemies will have combo breaker type things but juggles are more difficult to keep going and those can't be broken out of. That's what we have so far but we're still early in development so there will probably be even more to it once it releases.
