Well I do agree, most of them. First the TUTORIAL HELL (you'll eventually stuck, doesn't matter which update)

Basically NOT ENOUGH QUALITY GAMES/PROGRAMS/OS.

No, you're talking about quantity, please. You're encouraging AI. NO!!

I do get it, we need to learn & improvise & happy with small task, achievements. Sure & move on.

I get it its a publishing/selling/buying PHYSICAL/ONLINE stuff IS VERY DIFFICULTY APPROACH. MARKETING is completely different beast. also understanding which CATEGORY FITS to your "PRODUCT/stuff".. Strategize what people want (even they don't know, no one knows, its like a choosing a mood with specific time & place, others to be related together to other dramas/rumors, like its convenience,  HYPE == SELLS),

Which also don't forget, WERE ALSO a PRODUCT (our soul) to them You know "ToS" agreement. You have to be careful.

What about others PLAY/READ/WATCH (it doesn't matter if its free/buy/pirated)? We still need those people around you, that you can relate to them & to you, that you making them. A healthy community & creator itself. Balance is important. I didn't say it was easy. If you take it, then it takes a lot of responsibility.

And 1 last thing.

Did you know that you have to pay 100$ to publish 1 Steam game. Now count that.

Anyone who reads this and genuinely thinks "I should use generative AI to make a game" has absolutely abysmal reading comprehension and reasoning skills, and was probably already going to do it anyways too. Besides, it thinks there's probably zero overlap between people who will read this and people who would do that anyways.

Its sibling in Cthulu, you are currently on a website where you can post games for free🤭 Is there context it doesn't have? It got to the "You can stop reading here" and stopped, so there might be something it's missing from the expansions on the main section, but... Gabe Newell doesn't come to your house and shake you down for $100 to publish a game.

...He doesn't, right? If he does, someone ought to have told it so it can make sure its giant 3 is by the door to scare him off with.

Don't be defensive.

I know you can do it.

I believe in you

You read the documentation. 

This is the start.

The funny irony is, you can do it advertisement like this project.

See this is the right category you got it it right. (this is how algorithm works, this is how other people see it. Look analytics, even if its small)

People DO CARE, they're CURIOUS.

Even though they're NOT TELLING YOU DIRECTLY. They're clicking you.

They say you need put 90% of effort. To get "famous". (but in reality, they're trying to do LURE you in, clickbait)

But I say, once you post on internet it stays. (exceptsome files mostly)

Even if its just a little, it matters.

One (without even thinking, that's really damn good) project can do popular. even later. (it just needs some time, that's how algorithm works & people mood)

The project has to be INVESTED in. (no matter how big it is)

You need to be ENTERTAINER on social media, example like Twitch, Youtube,.. 

It needs an effort. Of course you need to find a balance in your life at your OWN pace. (And figure it out their system/algorithm, cause its quite fast, it can quickly drain you away. (that's why they have cute pets on internet, ecosystem)

I recommend you read the Steamworks Documentation & SteamDB. 

Small steps.

Nice meltdown

Thanks 🫠 😅

Ok let's move on with our lives. 

Let's never mention it again.

Did you play the game Death as Disco? 

I love that game, It's pretty cool MP3 music fighting rhythm game.
