Does Anyone Know How TO Get Recognition from Youtubers?
Plus,
Win a contest hosted by the YouTubers.
Participate in another promotional event hosted by them.
I’m kicking myself mentally for submitting to a jam connected by the hosted by a YouTube promoter during the latest call for boycotts. I was too focused on game development, for the challenge of it, and not paying any thought to the links or their meaning.
For someone who wants to be promoted on Google-controlled platforms, tho, jams and other challenges like it may be an option.
The easiest way is to make a horror game, and then youtubers will probably pick it up. I made a horror game in a few days with 70 lifetime view, but even with that small of visibility, it still got picked up by a youtuber. (albeit a small one, but there's very little chance you're getting a big streamer to play your game) Or, you could try contacting the youtubers by email. (Check the youtube channel info) Note: you probably will need a press kit for this kind of thing since it helps the youtubers make things like thumbnails, and that is important when their are thousands of games to choose from. It also is important to have a game that looks professional, because it is hard to convince someone take the time to play a game that looks terrible and is boring/short. (remember, they're looking for content) I hope this helps.
