Most of your game pages look like a fire and forget entry into a game jam
i dont understand this like fire? and i dont like game jams
Viewing post in thoughts ;S
It means low effort. You make the game in a hurry and move on to the next game a week later, not caring about the previous one.
A polished game from a single developer often takes years. If you release a game a month or more often, those are either slop or short mini games, like a lot of jam entries are. A typical jam restriction is to make a game within a week for a given topic. What you released this year looks like jam games, even if you do not like jams.
You would probably do well in a jam. Or at least get a reality check, how your games are compared to others. You have direct comparison to people that tried to do the same as you. Make a similar game and people voting will see the same games and can judge them by their description and hopefully by playing them.
Right now, your target audience either does not find your games, or they refrain from playing them, or they are indifferent to the games. You have some good comments, so I guess the cause is more in the presentation and that they simply do not find your games.
i put alot of effort in making my games
And how can people see this, before they play the games?
There is this saying that you should not judge a book by its cover. But it does not apply to actual books or games. Especially if there is 1.5 million books to chose.
Your cover looks low effort. So why should people read the book?
Furthermore, they will not even find some of your books, because they are not in the book shelves they are seeking such books.
There are lots of tags that might fit your games. Look what tags other people use for similar games.
There is roughly 3 steps for a good game.
1 be found
2 look good enough
3 be good
If your game are good, your problem is 1 and 2. And 3 will not solve 1 or 2.
I was using figurative speech. I likened all the things of a project that is not the project itself to be the cover of a proverbial book.
That includes your description, your screenshots, your tags, also the thumbnail, the short description and so on. All the things people see from the outside without actually playing the game.
