Make a trendy game, if you don't enjoy making them I don't recommend doing it for the fame though, this way is working for me. I never published a game in hopes of it blowing up hell none of my previous games got played almost at all but I persisted  

This is also good advice. The same principle works for art - as long as you ride on the waves of memes you are more likely to get noticed. However, I am more interested in doing my own thing. Most likely, all I need is patience :)
