At the moment, my game is labelled on itch.io under the "in development" category. Once it's fully published and I change its status, will my followers by notified of that, or do I have to do something to notify them myself? Also, do followers get notified whenever I post a devlog? Will the notifications be sent via email or via itch.io only?
Thanks for your time!
We don't let developers directly email followers. You can however email anyone who has bought one of your products.
Instead of emailing followers we plan to have a digest email about things that show up in your feed if you haven't viewed it in a while. Another feature we've been considering is a mailing list for developers where people can sign up with the intent of being emailed.
