Co-op bundle workflow UX feedback

hey there, I recently made a big co-op bundle (https://itch.io/b/239/the-dreamboxxx-bundle-custom-made-lgbtq-arcade-games) and here's some feedback / thoughts from using the system... I understand not many people use this system and it's probably low priority for you, but if you ever have some spare time to improve it, it'd be cool

  • overall it worked pretty well, and I really appreciate the slider split feature
  • I wish I could save drafts of the form before finally clicking "submit for approval"
  • I wish I could customize the bundle page theme and add a cover image... does that mean co-op bundles can't get featured on the front page, if they have no cover image?
  • I wish there were page view + referral analytics
  • I wish that "A bundle hosted by X with content from 7 creators" would instead list all the creators inline on the page, in alphabetical order (or add a checkbox to let us opt-in to this display mode)
  • I wish I could set a fundraising goal for a co-op bundle

anyway thanks, no need to reply or anything, xoxox

Thanks for the feedback. This is a feature I really like but is it need of some work to get more people using it.

does that mean co-op bundles can't get featured on the front page, if they have no cover image

There's one on the homepage right now (edit was, it ended), and I'll get yours up soon but there's a UI bug I have to fix with long title. It currently uses a combination of all the game covers, but I need to out a better way to handle it. There may be a cover image in the future, but minimally a promotional asset would be good.

I wish that "A bundle hosted by X with content from 7 creators" would instead list all the creators 

We changed it into a pop for a good bundle since there were 100+ people, but I see now the threshold is too low. I bumped it up.

I wish I could set a fundraising goal for a co-op bundle

Pretty sure we support this, but there's no UI for you to set it. Tell me what amount you want and I'll activate it for you


Everything else with I agree with. Thanks for taking the time to write this up

Could you set the bundle's fundraising thing to like $1400? thankssss

Sure, it's now there. I should have an field to edit the goal on the bundle's edit page pretty soon.

You can now freely edit the goal from your bundle's edit page
