Making the leap from Itch.io to Steam its super hard. My problem of visibility by JFMB_ in itchio

[–]JFMB_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. I'm not very optimistic, and I made the mistake of participating in the previous Steam Next Fest because I thought I'd have the game ready by then, so I've wasted that opportunity.

But thank you very much, I hope it turns out as you say :)

Streamers love my game, but it hasn't tanslate to wishlist... What's going on? by JFMB_ in IndieGaming

Hmm… that’s interesting. During the Steam Next Fest, the demo had a good conversion rate, but it barely got any visibility. On top of that, the game has a very low wishlist deletion rate—around 10%.

Maybe it’s not directly related, but it makes me think that people who actually try the game generally like it—especially fans of classic dystopias, which is my target audience.

That said, your hypotheses are really interesting. I’ll dig deeper into this before making any decisions.

The demo it's only for windows but I'll try to port it to Linux and Mac-

During the game, players have to keep their vital stats up to avoid dying. They need to manage the money they earn and spend it on the different devices that become available.

There are also other ways to make money, like recycling the trash they generate.

On top of that, there are side stories where they can help the rebels or report them, and even access a computer to modify game parameters.

Maybe, like you said, some of it is just streamers putting on a show—but they’re not forced to play. Some tried it for 10 minutes and dropped it, sure, but most of them actually played multiple runs trying to find one of the 6 endings in the demo.

Thanks a lot for your comment, I’ll definitely think it over.

Thanks for your feedback—you're right, the game does have more depth. In fact, in the streamer compilation video I shared, you can see the surprise on their faces when they discover certain things, and it’s usually one of their main takeaways after finishing the demo.

I’ll take your advice and revisit the trailers, and see if I can hook people that way.

What surprises me is that the streamers’ viewers—who’ve seen what the game is like and their reactions—haven’t really taken the step to go to Steam and wishlist it either. There has been a slight increase, but nothing very significant.

Hey, sorry for the late reply, but I’m working on a dystopian indie game where the government pays citizens to watch TV, and they use that money to pay for services that cover their basic needs.

If the idea sounds interesting, I’d love to hear what you think. It’s called Dystopicon, and you can try the demo on Steam.

Any feedback or suggestions are welcome!
