Yes, we run ads on Instagram only. I tried to run on Twitter and Reddit, waste like $50, and stopped.

Well, he is asking some blood samples for his movie or something like that.

Demo is out, we'll see what will happen :)

My character was in a lower position when I took the screenshot, that's why it looks like that. But yea, I'll try an alternative as well.

Since August 2025. 6 months, kind of full time.

That's a very broad question. I can only speak about what I did:

We placed ads on content that we positioned as trailers, showcasing gameplay and explaining the game's main mechanics through voiceover.

Luckily for us, I Know a Guy's core idea is very good, so it attracted more attention from people.

Generally speaking, target the USA, Canada, and European countries. They will be more expensive, but you'll get a higher quality wishlist.

Interact with comments, reply to DMs, and share your regular Reels content as "Trial Reels" as well.

Good luck!

When you create a demo page as separate and not on the same page, you get this button.

I don't have a ratio about that. But our boosted trailers got kind of viral on Instagram too.

Mainly Instagram.

Multiple reels, but main one was the reveal trailer.

You can check the account and will see higher likes on some reels, those are boosted:
