I'm happy that you had fun playing the game.! yeah there's a little bit of explaining the theme lol but that's how i interpret it anway lol. and yeah there should be cap for audio sfx, ill find a workaround to that.
also this might be the game i want to release on steam, would be good if i gain traffic here on itch first, maybe you could also add this comment at the main page that would be a huge help, I appreciate it a lot!
Sure, no problem. Done. I've added your game to my favourites, so I can keep an eye out for when you publish on Steam so I can wishlist you. All the best luck with that!
If I may ask, what's your secret to getting so much traction and feedback? I always struggle with getting people to come and see/vote for my little game. I know part of it is probably the cover page and the game itself. I suck at marketing myself and raising awareness through social channels.
hey thanks a lot!, it's really no one easy answer to that. for me there are things im following and it sometime works sometimes not. i've been doing this for too long and there are things that ive noticed.
- the thumbnail matters, it needs to show what kind of game it is and a bold but still themed title.
- people like consistency, if your art has different artstyle from each object inside the game it'll looks unprofessional.
- marketing your game logo and making it feels special by accentuating it at the very start of the game load out, seeing godot logo makes it looks like you're still practicing.
- people only will gives you 5 seconds before leaving your game page, before they even click it, they will hover the gamepage and 2 screenshot pop-up if those screenshots are static they might think that you didn't put any thoughts into it, try putting gif instead with much motion and best cuts that you can record out of your game. itch only allows you 3mb gifs so try to cut down to only 5 secs. with a very compact information of what your game is about. and if the file is still too big you can compress it online sites. try to put atleast 5 gif screenshots.
- beautify your page site, try to learn html coding to have more pop on to your page. and along with it try to do some art uniquely only for the page. and some other miscellaneous effects like hovering effects, maybe even gradient motion backgrounds. as long as it has the same vibe and feel of inside of your game.
hopefully this'll work on to your next jam
