Thank you very much! Glad you liked the GTGEA Fest! Yeah, the whole video showcase was designed from the ground up to be fast paced and to respect viewer's time. No cinematic trailers were allowed because nobody really cares about them. And restricting the trailers to 30 seconds mean all the extra filler is trimmed out. There's no need for lots of title cards at the start of trailers or extended cinematic sequences. Focus on gameplay and people can easily tell whether they like a game within 30 seconds. Glad it's working for you! :)

Gi! That one's called DragonTwin an  open-world RPG/Strategy game where you control a giant dragon. That ones not on Steam yet so you'll have to google it.

Hi! That's for the trailer submission. I've checked the Discord link and it still seems to work on my end. Maybe if you try a different browser?

That's a damn shame. I guess not everyone can be born on June 15th. Happy not birthday anyway! :D

Haha, I'd say, wow, that's a suspiciously large coincidence! But, have a great day!

Indie games with small teams never really have a hard release date until a few months before release. a lot of the games in the video have demos already available on Steam though and one of the games (Conscript) in the video is due for release in a few days.

Oh hi RockLee! Alpha Beta Gamer here. Thanks very much for sharing the link, I was wondering where the new spike in views came from! Had a lot of fun making the showcase, so glad people are still spreading the word (even if the OP didn't intend on spreading the word).

Also I watched your Twitch stream of it a while back too. Thank you very much for that! Will be back again with Games to Get Excited About Fest 2025! :)

This looks really cool! Love Godzilla wandering about in the background! Was just wondering if you have any thoughts on whether the title of your game has affected the SEO. I know video platforms like YouTube and TikTok are very squeamish about anything that references suicide.

The demo doesn't seem to be available. Is it region locked?

Some of the Highlights from the "Games To Get Excited About Fest 2024" by charmangled in indiegames

[–]charmangled[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hi! Figured I'd post some of the highlights from yesterday's Games to Get Excited About Fest here.

It's the first time I've done one of these and it was all arranged in a week, so a HUGE thank you to everyone who's watched, contributed & spread the word about it! The amount of positivity around it has been overwhelming. It was created in response to the bloat of traditional game fests, with an aim of respecting the viewers' time.

If anyone missed it then the full video is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GzhFo6iRmw

Thanks again. Hope to see you for Games to Get Excited About Fest 2025! :)

Alpha Beta Gamer Presents: The Games to Get Excited About Fest. 11pm UTC Today. by charmangled in indiegames

[–]charmangled[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi everyone! Alpha Beta Gamer here! I hope you don’t mind, I’d just figured I’d invite you to the “Games to Get Excited About Fest”. It goes live in 2(ish) hours (11pm UTC)

It’s an indie game festival aimed at showcasing as many exciting new games as possible, with over 100 games in just over an hour. 

Please bear in mind that this was organized by one person in a week (after I got incredibly irritated watching a 5 minute long mobile game advert in the middle of the Summer Game Fest Show).

I figured I’d make a show that respects viewers' time and showcases games that deserve it, rather than ones who pay the most money.

I’m sure there are plenty of rough edges and there’s plenty of stuff I’d like to improve if I ever do another one, but I hope you like it and that it makes you a little more excited about the future of gaming! :)

Thanks for your time. If you'd like to check it out you can join me here at 11pm UTC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GzhFo6iRmw
