itch.io

I hope you will gain success on itch but my game isn't looking to do good, I am gonna move to play store instead

can games except horror and NSFW do better on itch? is itch a good platform for shooter games?

You are right, but I'll still try even for a very little profit,

I am new to itch and I didn't knew that my game and page have so many faults, thanks for explaining things clearly, I'll try to improve it!

Yes, that's what I am looking for!

Thanks for your reply, I checked my game and found that it is not indexed yet and can take upto two weeks(maximum)

Hi everyone,

I’m new to Itch and just released my very first game. I was wondering if other developers could share their own experiences: how long did it take before your first game started getting noticed? Did you see views and downloads fairly quickly, or was it more of a slow process that built up over weeks or months?

I’m also curious about something else: what are some effective ways you found to attract more downloads early on? Did you rely mainly on the Itch community, devlogs, or outside platforms like YouTube/Twitter/TikTok?

Lastly, since I’m still learning, I’d really appreciate if anyone could take a look at my game page and let me know if the presentation (screenshots, trailer, description) feels strong enough, or if there’s something I could improve to make it more appealing.

For context, my game is a ghillie sniper shooter, and it’s the first time I’ve put something like this out there. Here’s the link if you’d like to check it out: [Operation Ghost Sniper]

Thanks so much to anyone willing to share their journey or give me feedback—it’ll help me a lot in setting realistic expectations and figuring out what to improve going forward.

Hey everyone,
I’ve just put out my very first game on Itch.io, and it’s a ghillie sniper stealth shooter. I’m honestly curious—do games like this usually do well here? From what I’ve seen, horror and platformers seem more common.

Since I’m new to publishing, I’d really appreciate if you could take a quick look at my game page and let me know:

• Does the presentation (trailer, screenshots, description) look good enough to make you click?

• Is there anything I could improve so it catches more attention?

Here’s the link if you want to check it out: [Operation Ghost Sniper]

Any thoughts are super helpful—thanks!

I have just released my first Ghillie Sniper shooting game on itch. The objective is simple: take out ghillie snipers hidden in the brush before they get you. The difficulty rises as you progress, and the last two chapters are especially challenging. The game features 5 chapters with unique locations such as dense forests, snowy mountains, and hot deserts, each containing four missions.
