Just released the Steam page for my new game - Crownbound!
It's a strategy sim game inspired by #Majesty!
You recruit heroes and try to keep them alive, while they run around and fight monsters.

Wishlist it now!

Crownbound - Fantasy Kingdom Sim on Steam

You’re the ruler, but your heroes have minds of their own. Recruit heroes, set rewards, build a thriving kingdom and hope your warriors don’t run off chasing squirrels instead of fighting monsters.

Sweet!
Got 4000 wishlists from Next Fest!
I was hoping for 2500, so it went way better than expected ;]
Started out with 3100.

Made my itch web demo live: bartmamzer.itch.io/arcane-plunder
Already got like a 100 plays in an hour with no promo, previous game (without a web build) got 255 views and 40 downloads total.
Looks like web build changes a lot (which makes sense).

My game has the option to rotate the view, by default it's rotated by 45 degrees.
It's funny how some people rotate it to this, I assume they really like #warcraft3 ;d
Was very surprised by this when I was showing off my game.

Active pause is so fun, it makes just rotating the view super satisfying for whatever reason.
Super glad I implemented it (only because during a playtest of the players suggested it might be a good idea)!

Demo launch is slowing down now!
Day 3 brought me 101 daily users and 39 wishlists.
I expect Day 4 to go down even more, still super happy with how it went, always good to get some WLs ;d

Demo launch is still going great!
Day 2 brought me 163 daily users and 59 wishlists.
Day 3 is ongoing (around 80 users so far), so it looks like it's slowing down a bit now.

Thank you!

Demo launch is going great!
Day 1 brough me 146 daily users and 53 wishlists, which is awesome considering how terrible wishlists numbers were for the last 2 months since the store page launch.
Day 2 is ongoing (around 110 users so far).
