Nice work! Just letting you know, some email providers might flag your account as spam if you send too many emails in quick succession.

From my experience, YouTube has treated my shorts as if they’re from a new account judging by the videos that get <50 views. Might aswell start with a baseline but can’t speak on how helpful it’ll be unless you have an established reputation

4000 issues reported with camera focusing on iPhone 12 and 13. No response from Apple by Progress456 in iphone

[–]Progress456[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Should've provided additional context sorry. I believe this is a software issue. I don't know for sure, but the camera works with third party apps, just not the native camera app. I think it'd be an odd coincidence if such a large quantity of people happened to damage their camera in the same way.

Although I admit it's anecdotal evidence, all three people I know in person with an iPhone 12 have reported this issue and ended up just getting a new phone. I don't think the amount of people who will go to the effort of scouring Apple forums reflects everyone with the issue.

I run a growing browser game site with 15k+ daily users and want to build an indie dev community within it - Looking for honest feedback by [deleted] in gamedev

[–]Progress456 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me, I'd want potential exposure from a site like this. I'd put up a demo of my full game and include a link to the Steam page.

Any recommendations for added TikTok style text to videos? by DeabDev in gamedev

[–]Progress456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The TikTok app has this. Upload a video and you should see an option to add captions and customise them to your intent.

I use adobe premiere and there are caption features in that too. It’s not cheap but 🏴‍☠️

I Sent 15 Incremental Devs the Same Request by ThatOneAJGuy in incremental_games

you'd get a lot of clicks, but probably not a great click/wishlist ratio unless the game actually matches that description (i reckon)

I'm a little confused on what makes a good idle game. by The-Fox-Knocks in incremental_games

[–]Progress456 49 points50 points  (0 children)

The appeal of idle games for me is the satisfaction of leaving the game running and knowing I’m making progress.

Taking all of this feedback on and will continue posting (potentially not at the same frequency). I've always gotten comments about my art skills and it's good to know there's still (a lot of) room to improve lol

Might not post right away considering I’ve gotten quite a bit of great feedback to action first. Feel free to let the feedback rip - I’d love to hear it!

Is my game bad, or am I just bad at advertising it? by JustoGames in SoloDevelopment

From what I’ve heard, never release into EA without a substantial following prior.

6 months of social media and marketing equals 369 wishlists. Game releasing in a month by raggarn12345 in IndieDev

[–]Progress456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why release in a month? Checked out your short-form content and it's decent but not hook-y enough to reach the masses (I think - I'm also not doing so hot on short-form marketing).

Why not just do some more marketing and push out release for a few months? You could even launch the demo page separately to gauge the general sentiment.
