FROGS ADDEDDDDD!!!
(please make sure to share, as it helps)
I’ve been here for a few years and released quite some stuff. Recently I released Pigcrawl (not a link to the game, just one to the announcement). A free game I worked hard for a while. Did all the stuff I usually do, announcement page (that’s the link), devlog creation, okay(?) looking game page, funneled a few of my own views (~100) and downloads, made a decent-ish cover, but still, just like most of my other stuff, nothing.
(The cover in question)
Is it like a genre thing? Like certain genres have a higher chance to be featured or something similar?

Crawl your way through a large dungeon floor and try to survive and also possibly obtain the orbs of madness you need to escape.
Presenting…
A non-exhaustive list of features:
A complex environment, potions boil, gases burn and flames consume,
Goblins and other creatures that actively hunt and cook, with or without your presence,,
A dungeon that lives and breathes, giving birth to new life and destroying the old,
Explosions. Chain explosions. Oh, what’s that? Another explosions,
Up to 20 wands each with completely different effects, such as flames, teleportation and mind transfer.
And much more!
Give it a go! And be sure to help me continue development by way of donations and ratings.
I RELEASED PIGCRAWL!

It’s still not complete but it’s very playable.

Sometimes by chance I’ll get logged out (naturally) and then when I try to log in again the Two Factor stuff will come up. Okay, send it to my email. Nope, no new message. (Actually no new itch messages for my yahoo mail, and yes I checked).
Okay, turn off Two facto authorization. Wait, it’s “not enabled” in settings!? Then why does it say it is,
The only way I even logged in again now was by going to incognito(?? Idk why tho). Please fix or help me disable.
A gameplay pic.
As you can see it’s a pretty standard traditional roguelike by looks (except cooler looking and less ASCII…heh). The denizens of the dungeon just do their own thing but a lot of times that also means either hunting you down or gaurding their treasure.
I plan to add a lot of different creatures for variety sake (but they’ll all be different gameplay wise, don’t worry).
So far some of the stuff I have include…
And a few more like a gelatinous cube and a rat.
But for now I’ll try adding a dragon. The animation is hard…

I’ve been tampering with my roguelike to instead make it so you play as a pig in one big Dungeon.
The dungeon is planned to be really interactive, and have a lot of terrain things going on in the background. So far I’ve implemented:
I need to do wands and more potion effects (like explosions, polymorphism and MIND SWITCHING), but that would be for later.
Me working on the cover
I made a new page a while back (gunroar.itch.io) that I wanted to be my main page (long story short, I just decided to stick with this one) and for one of my projects I tried to refer to it using this page (with a similar project but no downloadable, only a link to the project on my new page) But then I read this:
*If the page undergoes significant changes, or you need to adjust pricing or ownership rules, you can create a new page. However, if it appears you are recreating pages solely to boost visibility, your account may be penalized and no longer be eligible for our discovery features. *
And similar stuff like that. Is my paged penalized and if so I apologize and ask for rectification.
If your game is entered into a gamejam (without revealing itch.io’s algorithm) does it affect it’s chances of, for example, being featured by itch.io, or appearing more? Seems like it makes sense if it does, but then what about “gamejams” that aren’t really jams, but just a place to showcase your game or add to a bundle?
Oh, yeah. I also remembered. You can do a video of my game if you want :3
