How did those ausie fucks do it? What's their secret?
>>719648196>Make good quality game>Not even GREAT quality>Just a good game that maintains the quality througoutthat easy.
>>719648196BUY AN AD
Made a good game.
>575Thats a SMALL number? What are these hundreds of games that I never heard of and never will hear of.
>>719648593the vidya equivalent of shitposts I assume
She's too powerful...
>>719648681I remember when a forum seeing 600 posts a month was considered very active and now we get 3 times that many shit games releasing a month.
Enjoy your few days of stupid bug game. Borderlands is coming.
>>719648593Asset flips and mobile ports mostly.

>>719648196>One third of normal releasesIronically all the retards that pulled out are going to be put into an even more hostile market when they release while the ones that stayed are probably going to sell better because of it
>>719648196The fuck,70K players max and recently.didn't break 56K on the kickstarter.1 million wishlist's.is some how gonna break into the top 5 played games on steam?Shit ain't adding up.
>>719651151Were you born yesterday, bub?
>>719648593
>>719648593Monthly average for Steam releases is 1.1k last time I checked.I also feel totally out of the loop with Silksong since I never played or really was interested in Hollow Night, but to see these posts makes it look like the indie version of GTA6 or something.
>>719648196INDIE GAME DEVS WERE RAPED IN THE SWELTERING HOT SUMMER OF '25
>>719648926fucki misread this as "giant moth gf" and thought "finally a game for me"fucking bug thread
>>719648196>literally 70% of games deliberately changed release date just to get out of Silksong's wayholy fuck this can't be real
>>719651730It's funnier to me that nobody gives a fuck about Borderlands 4 and is more scared of Silksong fucking up their launch.
Without sufficient basis, this doesnt really mean anything, what is the evidence 7/10 games were cancelled, why is there no relative comparison to prior years. Or even prior months beyond september, to ground a frame of reference how truly uncommon this is.And most importantly, why was this done now with zero frame of reference for what the expected steam releases were before Silksong was announced.And theres even more to prod.None of this is contexualized. Is that graph games released since September started, or games expected to release in September?And finally: None of this matters because 90% of games released on steam are garbageware that shouldnt be released anyway.
>>719651790Cultural phenomenon
>>719648375>giving money to gook moot
>>719648196oh my god, think about the damage they are doing to the indie scene. also only 19.99? this is an outrage, they are raising the bar stupidly high. think about the indie devs whose livelihoods you are taking away. be better, cherry team
>>719648196When will Team Cherry apologize?
>>719648196My knees...
>>719648196reddit strong arming their devs to make it look bad. You'd think they have enough brain to realise that they cannot force a boycott of Silksong but here we are.
>>719651310I want off your wild ride, mr anon

I've had HK for years, but with the release of SS I'll definitely finish it this time for sure!
>>719651860Nigga what, the comparison is right there in OP. Every month of this year has had 1500+ games, and suddenly september only has 500.
>>719651598t. reg
>>719654597It get really good about 15 hours in you just have to try not to fall asleep
RAISE THE FUCKING PRICE YOU CUNTS!
>>719651730It’ll be funny if Silksong ends up failing to break 100k after all the hype It won’t it’ll probably be one of the biggest releases of the year and probably the second biggest indie release of all time on Steam behind Palworld
>>719651962I mean with those numbers it is bound to have a great launch.Other devs are in their right mind to be scared. A lot of people will spend their time with Silksong and have no desire for anything else.If your game launch is a flop you might have a hard time to create hype again.
>>719654682they are clearly all dodging the real big leaguer, Miku Racing feat. Sonic
>>719648196does the first game have fighting game motion inputs, or is it just a button basher for children?
>>719655819Are you mentally challenged?
>>719648898lol. have a pity (you)
>>719654769>AFTER 15 hourswtf no good platformer has any reason to be longer than than a few hours
>>719651962>Subnautica 2Wait, wasn't that shit already released?
>>719648196Launch a Metroidvania with an artsyle that appeals to loud autists at a poorfag price in the middle of a 2 decade Metroid drought.
>>719656298>2 decade Metroid droughtWho is going to tell him bros?
>>719648196>What's their secret?Simple, fun gameplay that appeals to normies. In other words: the exact opposite of what /v/eddit preaches, which is convoluted, tedious, and generally lacking in gameplay.
>not interested in Silksong, while every other game is getting postponed for the month
>>719656229You might be thinking of Below Zero, a standalone DLC for Subnautica 1. (It sucks; avoid it.)Subnautica 2 is/was in dev hell and the publisher sacked the studio creative directors because they were apparently insufferable woke assholes who were tanking the game with their poor decisions.
>>719656685God isn't that the goat game bitch that turned an anon into a tranny? Lmao
>>719654878I'd say it's GOTY material but some stupid dog released part of his unfinished game and got 100 million sales so the competition is stiff
>>719657550Silksong beating E33 for GotY would be hilarious.>UndertaleI don't know if it can really be a GotY contender since it's not a game and more just DLC since the 'game', Undertale itself, has been out for free on Steam for years. Chapters 3 and 4 are just new content for an older game.
>>719657550Absolutely no one is voting fucking Deltarune as game of the year, I doubt it's even eligible for a nomination since it's not finished
>>719656229It's in dev hell because the company sacked key employees to avoid paying out a previously agreed 250m bonus LMAO
>>719648196THAT'S RIGHTGIVE SILKSONG A WIDE BERTH SEPTEMBER IS SILKSONG TERRITORY
>>719656987>>719658496So which one is it?
>>719658843The CEOs that got sacked were just incompetent. The 'muh bonus' thing is window dressing to make it look like it was the publisher being mean, when things like bonus payments would have special clauses in contracts when you're in the executive team.
>>719658843both
>>719648196by making the most middle of the road game that appeals to the largest audience possibleI liked HK btw, it offered nothing mechanically but it had visual appeal
>>719648315I don't wanna suck it off too hard but it really is a great game, you're just a nigger
>>719648196Isn’t that hollow knight? I played for a couple hours and got bored
