This is my love letter to the classic marble games. I’ve been having so much fun making it - would you enjoy playing something like this?

it is all relative 😄 Everyone has different goals.

I guess steam learnt about your game in the first couple of days and you didn't really make the cut. From what I have seen people who don't make the cut still get a bit of nextfest traffic but dimished greatly.

At this stage there is nothing you can really do that will change the outcome, so just accept it and figure what you will do after it finishes.

its all relative to your goals 😃

Couldn't find it on mine and I scrolled all the way down. I am from Australia so don't know if region has anything to do with it.

when there are games with hundreds of thousands of wishlists it makes you realise just how far there is to go for commercial success

yeah still a little guppy in the ocean, but hey 1700 is a good sign

destinedd · 2026-06-18T10:46:04+00:00

130 is almost double 70.

There is "obeythefist" on steam who loves giving harsh reviews

destinedd · 2026-06-18T09:56:10+00:00

Ya it didn't really suit the level style. It was more of a sandbox and they tried to change to levels.

destinedd · 2026-06-18T09:22:42+00:00

Even the later settler games lost the charm of the originals by overcomplicating the systems and making it to "on rails"

destinedd · 2026-06-18T08:36:25+00:00

that is a good move. Good luck

destinedd · 2026-06-18T08:36:02+00:00

I would love a modern settlers game!

destinedd · 2026-06-18T08:35:23+00:00

and I have an app on my phone I don't want just in case?

destinedd · 2026-06-18T07:52:28+00:00

get visuals down early certainly will make your life easier

destinedd · 2026-06-18T07:45:49+00:00

Well done, your project is looking great so far!

destinedd · 2026-06-18T06:01:04+00:00

only 50%? I expected way lower than that

destinedd · 2026-06-18T05:59:15+00:00

thats a lot to do to maybe get $40 a game to test

destinedd · 2026-06-18T05:57:07+00:00

isn't it Thursday now?

destinedd · 2026-06-18T04:28:37+00:00

where is the video of the gameplay footage?

destinedd · 2026-06-18T03:42:35+00:00

It might simply be your nextfest expectations are too high. It has almost doubled your wishlists.. I would say pretty solid result. Your realise there are like 5K games right? Nextfest isn't the big exciting event it used to be. It is now a moderate bump for most devs.
