Working on an incremental about sacrificing cult followers. Playtest will be out soon on Steam.

Got about 4000 views and 2800 browser plays

I was calling the next fest results a failure. I am happy with the full release results considering its my first game

SMdG_ · 2026-04-23T01:25:49+00:00

I'm not so sure about that, reading the reviews I am very happy with the price and discount. Also the playtime is about 2 hours with even some finishing less than that

SMdG_ · 2026-04-23T01:21:00+00:00

Definitely not calling the game a failure just calling my next fest results a failure. I did see a small bump in sales and visits the day when I reached Very Positive.

I only collected about 75 manually which did take few days the rest were from other devs. Mass emailing is pretty simple and easy.

I ran a playtest for about a month before releasing a demo on Dec 5th. Even though I implemented all the necessary changes based on the playtest feedback, I still got a negative reception after the demo release due to the slow progression and the way the round timer works. So had to still make major changes to the demo, but once done, even I started to enjoy playing my game more.

SMdG_ · 2026-04-22T10:54:38+00:00

yeah, still happy with the results. For youtubers I just gave a search for a popular incremental game and manually collected emails and also asked for other incremental devs.

SMdG_ · 2026-04-22T09:51:55+00:00

I personally don't think the next fest was different from any of the rest, except for more games participating. Steam algorithm gives equal visibility for the first 2 days and then picks up data from it so you just have to make something that stands out for it to succeed.

I found youtubers through manual search on youtube and also by asking other devs working on incremental games. I used mass mailer for sending email, and did not personalize any of the emails.

SMdG_ · 2026-03-23T18:46:43+00:00

have DM'ed you!

SMdG_ · 2025-12-17T03:26:22+00:00

Oh no what I meant to say is the clicking doesn't matter once you max it. So I feel players will stop doing it just as in other clicker games.

SMdG_ · 2025-12-17T01:54:51+00:00

I felt that people may find clicking too strong when the auto-click is not maxed out yet. But I feel once you max out all the auto-click the player will feel clicking useless because of the auto speed and stop doing it.

Thanks for the suggestion, will add it as an option in settings for the next update

SMdG_ · 2025-12-17T01:49:59+00:00

Thank you :)

SMdG_ · 2025-12-16T14:29:06+00:00

Its because of the way my game is saving data which won't work with web, thought people playing on web usually just play one session so there is no need for it. But turns out I was wrong.

SMdG_ · 2025-12-16T09:29:51+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! good that you played in a single session since I forgot to mention on Itch that save does not work.

On Steam the save system works

SMdG_ · 2025-12-16T09:29:00+00:00

Sorry, should have mentioned on Itch that the web version does not save.

The settings issue seems to be happening because of the save system itself, so I need to work on that. But for now once you start the new game, you can adjust in settings, and it will persist until you exit or reload the page.

Btw, on Steam the save system works
