Hey Dooshima, I came across After Round One and spent some time reading through your recent devlogs. I really like the direction you're taking it, especially moving beyond the numbers themselves and making it more about reading opponents, bluffing and recognising patterns.

I also saw that you're still actively developing the demo and testing things based on player feedback, so I wanted to reach out.

I run Parody Boat Media, a small indie publishing group. I'm looking for promising indie games where I can handle the marketing, short-form content and community side while the developer focuses on building the game.

I think After Round One could be really interesting to market because the decisions and bluffing naturally create those “what would you choose?” moments that could work well as short-form content.

If you're open to potentially working with a publishing partner as the game develops, I'd love to chat and hear more about what you're planning for the full version. Happy to talk here or on Discord, whichever is easier.

Hi, thanks for reaching out and for taking the time to look through the After Round One devlogs.

You picked up on exactly where I'm trying to take the game. I'm developing it further around strategy, deduction, reading opponents, bluffing and recognising patterns rather than having the experience feel like simply choosing numbers.

I'm currently working toward turning the public demo into a stronger full PC release, with Steam as the next major goal. Marketing, community building and reaching the right players are also areas where I'd definitely benefit from support.

I'd be interested in hearing more about Parody Boat Media and how you normally work with developers. In particular, I'd like to learn more about games or projects you've previously worked on, what you would handle for After Round One, your publishing model, and what you would expect from me as the developer.

I'm happy to have an initial conversation and see whether there could be a good fit.

Discord works for me. Feel free to send me your details here and we can continue the conversation.

Thanks again for reaching out!

Dooshima

Thanks Dooshima, really appreciate the response. That sounds great and I’d definitely be interested in talking through it properly.
