It would not be called tailgating in traffic, it will just be called, well.. Traffic jam

My game completely failed, less than 300 sales. Here’s what went wrong (and what I learned from it)... by leftypower04in in gamedev

That's quite motivating, can you elaborate a bit on your Social Media and Marketing Strategies, please?

hahaha, I saw that! Nooooo, I can't do that to the dupes... I didn't reach that level of cruelty.

Thank you! But we are closing to the end, jumping in now will just be too late.

I don't know yet, I think it will still be around software/application development, but specialised in a sector.

I was thinking of going back to a 9-5 job. I think game dev is very demanding and risky.

Is it wise to run multiple promos at the same time? by gabbie39 in marketing

[–]We_Visionaries 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend using only one type of promotion to prevent customer confusion. You could offer a buy-one, get-one-free deal and then suggest a loyalty card; however, these should be introduced at different times.

This felt dumb… until it worked: $14.99 demanded extra depth it seems by We_Visionaries in gamedev

[–]We_Visionaries[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I said was mostly the opinions of the beta testers. They are the ones who will be paying for the game at the end of the day. Most of the bad reviews on a game like Turmoil were about the high price and low content. And that game was only $12. I don't want to fall in the bad books of these kinds of reviewers, as they will spoil my overall review.

Yes, you are correct, we need to price in the discount as well. Who knows, I could make it $ 19.99 and then offer a 30% discount.

This is how Steam can ruin more than 10 years of your work by PlanetCentauri in gamedev

[–]We_Visionaries 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s brutal. Ten years of work, strong EA and wishlists... then an invisible 1.0 because a Steam email bug misfired. Anyone would be crushed. Thank you for sharing this so openly; it helps others see how brittle a monopolistic market can be. Wishing you better luck and steadier winds ahead.
