Hi,
Thank you for you response. I don’t understand how « recently update » is not systematic when the game is recently update. You are telling me « if you want visibility you have to be famous » but we need visibility for that. I dont get it.
Viewing post in My game never appeared in "Recent".
I’m not telling you have to be famous. I’m just trying to give you a realistic understanding of how things are. Showing up in the new and recently updated page for a brief moment isn’t going to make you successful. You’re going to have to do a lot of work on your end, and don’t expect itch.io to magically make your game take off, especially if you’re essentially a relatively new account. You have to build a community like every other creator.
And I totally understand but when I spoke about it with other game creators(especially NSFW), their statistics were clearly showing that being in the recently update is a must have. I’m working my ass off on my end, but idk how itchio is helping me to build a community if players have to dig for 5 minutes to find my game.
Plus, I do not expect itchio to make me famous, not at all. I’m saying that every other website where my game appears is helping me and giving visibility to the game by making it appear in recently update or new game at least. I dont understand why itchio doesn’t and just leave me at the bottom of the search.
