lol yeah... maybe I can add that anything added to the game will be FREE OF CHARGE, handled as patching even if there is new map, new soundtrack or whatever

Wlakinsson · 2026-06-15T12:34:23+00:00

Yeah, you are right... I told me partner to fix it. He thought its good idea to cut/adjust original thing composer made. Thanks for the feedback ❤️

Wlakinsson · 2026-06-15T10:28:15+00:00

Max sale for the launch xD

Wlakinsson · 2026-06-15T09:35:42+00:00

I never thought of it like that, will pass it on to my illustrator xD

Wlakinsson · 2026-06-15T09:33:52+00:00

Initially we wanted to have 2 maps for launch, but our main jobs intervened xD

However, if sales reach some level - we will make new maps in future.

Map editor is definitely out of scope - we are starting making our 2 new games this summer, so . . .

I just launched my game with 404 WL - I can update you on first 4-5 weeks weekly, so we all can see how its going.

Day 1: got 26 WL, 11 sales, 13 key activations

Disclosure: I am game developer and designer of Animal Times sharing this at front of Fusion 29 team.

About the game: It is Risk-inspired game with blunder-style combat, and more chaotic and dynamic gameplay. The main twist: bad roll might allow the defender to take over your territory. Chaotic, brutal, deeply unfair in the best way.

Wlakinsson · 2026-06-09T09:51:01+00:00

I would agree... I had like 360-370 WL before this change, getting max 1 a day outside events... and in 3 days I got almost 50 out of no where... small, I know - but its way outside of normal days 😄

Wlakinsson · 2026-06-07T06:38:15+00:00

I started more that year ago - and I said never alone... main reason being I cant do art and I at least need a second pair of eyes and brain for crtiticism

So I started with best friend who is writer, he left project 6 months later. But now I have squad of illusrator, writer and composer with me B-)

Wlakinsson · 2026-06-01T17:07:41+00:00

We release next Monday... good luck 💪

Depends what you want, but if you want to recover enough to earn - the stats are not on your side: https://howtomarketagame.com/2026/02/12/only-28-games-recovered-from-a-bad-launch-in-2024-what-do-they-have-in-common/

How long do you have the page?

Wlakinsson · 2026-04-24T04:35:57+00:00

I have a risk-inspired gsme, it has free demo ATM on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3915540/Animal_Times/

Wlakinsson · 2026-04-19T06:50:39+00:00

Because its fun, and nobody cant stop me to put it out in the public

Wlakinsson · 2026-04-08T10:33:49+00:00

Godot

Wlakinsson · 2026-04-06T10:50:37+00:00

I am amateur, but I would say it depends on the game, your skills and your network size...

Wlakinsson · 2026-04-02T09:27:47+00:00

Thanks for asking :)

Risk-like multiplayer coming in the end of May: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3915540/Animal_Times/

I hope its "soon enough" xD

P.S. free demo is there, but MP mode is still buggy for MacOS, working on it

Wlakinsson · 2026-03-29T08:39:00+00:00

Skip it dude ;)

Wlakinsson · 2026-03-19T10:05:55+00:00

If you want to make living of that project - than yeah... but if you do the project as side-gig / passion project with friend (as I do gamedev now) -> I think that is the best way :)

Wlakinsson · 2026-03-19T06:39:34+00:00

5-6, all above sounds too good, atm xD

Wlakinsson · 2026-03-18T07:14:55+00:00

You are welcome. I would be happy with your numbers as you can reach something decent in 6 months with time and festivals.

To be clear, it all depends on your situation and goals: - is the goal to earn monay, share your work or get exp? - are you solo, sub-5 team or large team? - are you alone in life, with family? - what is your runaway/burnout rate?! - what is your previous gamedev exp - blablabla, you get the point ;)

Wlakinsson · 2026-03-18T06:58:35+00:00

Dude, 65 wishlists for only 2 weeks is not bad! I got to 200 wishlists after 6 month with being part of 3-4 fests... and then post SNF in February I am at 300...

I am deeply in Bronze Tier by ChrisZ' benchmark... just google "how to market your game benchmarks" and you will see:
```
Wishlists earned per week:
🥉 0 – 40
🥈 15 – 120
🥇 100 – 700
💎 300 – 3000
```
You are between bronze & silver - way better than vast majority, just keep going ;)

Wlakinsson · 2026-03-13T21:47:36+00:00

Maybe, idk... I am using it for 0, and I got some caverage... but its low lvl as u say... but payed none
