lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

🦤 Det er fredag, efterårsferie for nogen, og vi har i dag at gøre med en fugl, som er karakteristisk på alle måder. Den er sågar fuglen, som er portrætteret ikke bare én gang men hele to gange i logoet hos Dansk Ornitologisk Forening! Jeg ønsker alle en fantastisk weekend! ✌🏼🍂

I am looking for recommendations of Streamers and Youtubers who cover Steam Next fest!

I've found a lot on YouTuber, less on Twitch. Do you folks have any recommendations? - I'd like to contact as many as I can to show off my game.

Haus of Decline @hausofdecline.bsky.social · Apr 28

A huge group of people are in a giant hole in the middle of a rolling field. There is a large sign with an arrow pointing to the hole that says "HOLE." Suddenly the group's attention turns to a new hole, complete with a giant sign with an arrow pointing to it that says "NEW HOLE." One person points to the new hole and says "hey look! Someone made a new hole!" The mass clamours out of the old hole and makes a bee-line toward the new hole. It's chaos. One person, now situated in the new hole says "this feels like how the old hole used to feel." Another person nods in agreement.

How do you work out how to reach your audience if you don't try at all?

Fuzk @fuzk.bsky.social · 9d

That's very reasonable! In any case, gl with the game. Wishlisted, btw!

And 2:

As a general marketing tip, be sure to include a link to your game whenever possible. Like in a post such as this one (or in a reply).

Fuzk @fuzk.bsky.social · 9d

Two things:

1: Never a waste of time to post about videogames, especially if it's one you're making. Every game is different and has a different path to finding an audience. Maybe your game just hasn't found the right audience or channel yet? But at least now you know what (seemingly) doesn't work.

My wishlist for the game has flatlined around 350.
All efforts in posting about my game on SoMe, online, etc. has kind of just been a complete waste of time.

No festival, streamer, YouTuber has picked up the game yet.
So it's looking to be one of those obscure games lol.

Another one

Fuzk post from weeks ago: "Wasn't the whole point of Bsky to be nazi-free zone?"

"Kinda feels like every new bit of communication from Bsky management gets a little bit more nazi-aligned."
