>This game was in development for six years and only got 22 reviews on Steam>the devs are just giving away keys to get people to leave reviewsWhen are you going to give up on the game dev dream /v/? You won't be the next Edmund McMillen, Daisuke Amaya or Toby Fox. Odds are nobody will buy your game.
>>733505168Maybe their publisher should have marketed the fucking game? Moron
>>733505405This. Games needs to have memes around and reviewer-videos before release.
>boss fight-only>look inside store page>screenshots of dialogue, dialogue, minigame, dialogue
>>733505168>story rich>boss rushterrible TERRIBLE combination.>b-but muh sotcSucks ass and sold like 20 copies.
stop. making. platformers nobody buys them
>When are you going to give up on the game dev dream /v/?ngl I'm really fucking closerunning/walking animation sucks
>>733505168post clip if you want anyone to care about (you) game
>>733505168>>733505405>>733505547>DANGENThere's your prob. Shit tier marketing. I normally come across their games a good 2 or 3 weeks after release, if I even come across them at all. On the flip side, a publisher like Critical Reflex, for example, will be fucking my inbox almost daily a good 2 months before a release, with press materials and keys. Even mid games get decent steam traction just based on their marketing alone.
>>733505168Buy an ad for your shitty game, dev
Most people are wildly delusional about what people want to play. Boss Rush games are an extremely small niche.
>>733505675How is sotc story rich retard, there's like 5 lines of dialogue in the game
>>733506081soulsfags are so brainrotted they think an almost nonexistent story actually secretly means it's one of the deepest stories ever told.zanzibart, forgive me
>>733505675Story rich boss rush is a great combination it just hasn't been done right.>FuriThe story sucks and the repetitive pacing with those one-sided monologues is so awful.>SotCAgain repetitive pacing and one-sided monologues (weird, huh?) but with the added problem that the bosses being puzzles means fights lose steam once you understand what to do. Plus not much replay value.Idk what else there is in this category but it absolutely can be done it just requires great writing and designers who know how to keep the fight/story yin and yang full of twists and variety. Few games have great writing of course
>>733505168Someone was giving away keys to their indie game on 4chan I redeemed it and never launched it, I forgot the name too.It's hard to stand out these days.
>>733505168How woke is it?
>>733505168really annoyed that I signed up for various social media bullshit just to confirm OP is a lying faggot.
>>73350516820k new games in a year. It's time to get a real job, anons.
>>733505168Unpopular genre: people want horror, roguelike, builders or incremental/upgrades shit
>>733505168>in development for six yearsExtreme skill issue
>>733505168They forgot to just be lucky.
>>733505168>Look on socials >Nothing about free keys Buy a fucking ad no I am not joining your discord your game is shit compared to mewgenics
