And there are tools to help! Coverage Bot will ping you a Discord notification of any streams of your game that start (+YT, TikTok, podcasts etc). You can even share them with your community which will supports the creator AND engages your existing community WIN:WIN ๐Ÿ’œ impress.games/coverage-bot...

Next Fest an opportunity to convert creators and players into ambassadors by showing up and giving them recognition & appreciation. Popping into a small streamer's stream and saying "Hey, I'm the dev feel free to fire any questions at me" goes a LONG way to creating a lifelong fan and supporter 3/?

Community in the broadest sense. So Influencer management, social media management and customer service/CX all under that umbrella. I see so many AWESOME games hitting Next Fest at the moment with no strategy for capturing and engaging with their players. Don't just "Chuck it on Steam and see" 2/?

Hope you're staying sane(ish)! Good news: I built a shed door from scratch and against all odds, it fit into the shed doorway I also built. Bonus good news: I'm going to hang out with a bunch of games nerds at Guildford Games Fest tomorrow

I imagine "Will they also make me redundant soon after?" is a recurring thought for those in the market at the minute, but also balanced with "what's the alternative?". Challenging times, indeed!

Happy birthday! Sorry you're feeling shite, but maybe that's a double excuse to treat yourself well today.

Sounds very much like why I'm building my own house. The value I get from the process is just as much as from the result

As in music festivals? Never really been my thing for some reason. Been tempted by some of the vanlife festivals though
