I would like to thank the real life fake wizard for providing us with this resource.
https://fakeportal.com/

Basically it's going to allow us indie developers to help us expand our playerbase. It'll work like IGN but is developed and designed to cater to our needs as indie developers and keeps AAA studios like EA and Ubisoft out so people can actually find our games and we can't be silenced as easily by things like soulless big tech. This is a huge win for us developers and gamers everywhere! 

An example screenshot from beta:

Obviously this project is incomplete and more stuff will be added before launch. 

deliberations about the project are being had by his team in private, and publicly on his discord. if you're an indie developer here on itch or an indie who stumbled upon this post and wish to join the project you can do so here on the wizard sanctuary discord: https://discord.gg/eXna6fd8Yg

Some things of note which are already being considered are the handling of shovelware products, bad actors tagging and organization on the site itself, genres and the handling of external resources, team sizes, External Account Requirements and many other accessibility & gameplay features. 

Thanks for reading, I hope I've provided you with a useful resource to expand your continued development and given you useful information.

you can learn more about it from his videos here:

or if you prefer to avoid youtube he has the same videos on rumble:
