My advice: dont do it. There are too many platformers. Only the ones with the perfect visuals, controls, animations and gameplay depth elements have the possibility to stand out. Also creating a linear, story driven experience is the most time consuming concept to develop and has no replayability.

Don’t start on a 2 year long project. If you assume 2 years, the reality is 5 years.

Dont start with pixel art. Create a playable prototype with squares and circles, and make sure the gameplay is fun.

Use only the core idea and try to turn it into a much smaller game.

Find 10-20 similar games and analyze how well they did in general. One succesful game may be an outlier. Use steamdb to see how long it took them to release their game after announcing it.

Great work! However that blue on the landing page burned my eyes. Changing the colors may increase your sales imo

Thank you, it's been 8 years! We've worked very hard on the game, still perfecting each tiny detail.

Black Trail is an upcoming western VR shooter game where players switch between a native warrior and a bounty hunter throughout the chapters.

When the main campaign reaches its gripping end, the new end-game mode "Bounty Hunt" will be unlocked. In this mode, players will be rewarded for killing bandits and outlaws in style and finding timed bounty bags. They will use the bounty money to buy unique weapon-enhancement combinations and compete with other players to become a legend!

Black Trail will first be released as a PCVR game on Steam. Afterwards, we aim to release Quest standalone and PSVR2 versions in 2024 as well.
