What would you say, what is optimal time for posting on social media like BlueSky, something in morning 09:00-11:00 AM , maybe something around 15:00-18:00PM or something latter let's say around 21:00-23:00 PM, what is your opinion? ๐Ÿ™‚

Good tip for devs, when there is a hashtag day, for example Showcase Thursday as you put your content on relevant posts, try also to check 4-5 other devs and provide feedback to thier stuff. In this way, you are building connections and doing organic marketing in right way๐Ÿ™‚

Everything starts from pen and paper, really nice description ๐Ÿ™‚ Wish you all the best in your development journey โ˜บ๏ธ

Ever wondered about the very first steps of #gamedev, before jumping into #programming ? For my next game A Serene Trip I wrote a #penandpaper #prototype that let me role-play the game with friends, and it's been super helpful!

Itโ€™s #ShowcaseThursday! โ˜บ๏ธ Indie devs, share your latest screenshots, GIFs, or trailers in the comments Iโ€™ll engage with as many posts as I can to help boost your organic reach ๐Ÿ“ˆ Consistency + community = visibility ๐Ÿ™‚ Letโ€™s make some noise for your games today๐Ÿ™‚ #indiegames #indiedev #indiemarket

Quick tip for #indiedev on Bluesky: Donโ€™t just follow 50 accounts in one day hoping for a follow back, it can look spammy and you may receive some warnings. Instead, follow a few each day, reply to their posts, share kind words. Organic growth is all about real connections. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Itโ€™s Trailer Tuesday! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Working on a game? Drop your trailer, teaser, or even a short gameplay clip below. Pro tip, when you post your trailer, always include a clear CTA (wishlist link, follow, demo, etc.), it makes a huge difference.๐Ÿ˜Š #gamedev #indiedev #TrailerTuesday

๐ŸšจGlobal Indie Games Market Report ๐Ÿšจ For the first time ever in 2024, Indie Games were making as much money on steam as AAA and AA games. More Indie Games units are sold then AAA games. From 2018 to 2024, indie games doubled their share of revenue. #indiegames #indieworld

As an indie dev, youโ€™re not just making a game. Youโ€™re picking a market. Some genres have built-in audiences (cozy sims, roguelikes, survival). Others, you may have to fight for each player. What genres do you think are the easiest or hardest to sell as an indie? ๐Ÿ™‚ #indiegames #indiedev

Why every indie game dev needs a Press/Media Kit ? Easiest way for press, blogers, marketers or any other source to promote your game is that you have prepared press kit ready for sending โœ… Hereโ€™s what to include ๐Ÿ‘‡ #indiedev #gamemarketing

What is a press kit? A press kit is a simple folder or page with all the essentials: ๐Ÿ“ธ Screenshots ๐ŸŽจ Logo / key art ๐ŸŽฅ Trailer (if you have one) ๐Ÿงพ Game description ๐Ÿ”— Store / demo links

Must-have content in a press kit: โœ… Logo (transparent PNG) โœ… 5โ€“10 screenshots (in-game & menu) โœ… Short pitch (1โ€“2 sentences) โœ… Longer game description (1โ€“2 paragraphs) โœ… Key info (genre, platform, release date, etc.) โœ… Trailer or GIFs โœ… Contact info

People want to support your game. But their attention span is 2 seconds usually. ๐Ÿ˜„ A simple CTA(call to action) like โ€œWishlist now ๐Ÿ‘‰ [link]โ€ turns interest into action. Use it. Reuse it. Pin it. ๐Ÿ˜Š #gamemarketing #steamwishlist

PR Tip: Show your work-in-progress! Fans & press love seeing the creative journey. A GIF of an early mechanic or a funny bug shows the heart behind the game and builds a community that's invested in your success long before launch. #gamedev #indiedev #PRtips #gamemarketing #indiegame

My goal? Help small indie devs get BIG attention โ€“ without paid ads. Just raw community building, consistency & love for the game. Starting my next free campaign soon, very excited about this one ๐Ÿ‘€ #indiegames #marketingjourney

It's always interesting to see this kind of videos from early development phase, great way to share your hard work with people and to receive feedback which can help you in upgrading your game ๐Ÿ˜Š

Posting on social medias is probably 50% of marketing, other 50% is commenting, reacting, sharing, replying, supporting others and being active and present in communities... ๐Ÿ“ˆ๐ŸŽฎ This is something that algorithms loves and people remember. ๐Ÿ˜„

Learning by doing โ€“ thatโ€™s the plan. ๐Ÿ˜€ I want to sharpen my organic marketing skills (and build a portfolio) by helping indie devs promote their games for FREE. ๐ŸŽฎ If youโ€™re making a game but donโ€™t have time for marketing โ€“ letโ€™s team up! ๐Ÿ‘‰ My DMs are open. #IndieDev #IndieGameDev #Marketing

Indie devs โ€“ want your game to be shared more? ๐Ÿ‘‰ Make a press kit. Just a folder with art, trailer, description & links. Marketers & journalists LOVE when all assets are ready. Do you have one for your game?

I love games with this kind of environment where you can stand in one place for a long time and just enjoy the vibe and peacefulnes it gives... ๐Ÿ˜€
