I've brought this up on good old IndieDB as well ; )

While searching for free games here on Itch to potentially play and review for a YouTube channel, I noticed the occasional user post a comment on the occasional game, mentioning that they've played, reviewed and posted a video about their game. Both the developer and Youtuber seemed be in the process of slowly growing their audiences and both parties appeared to receive some incremental benefit from their interaction here. I was wondering if there was an opportunity for a more accessible form of direct interaction between these two types of creators here on the forum pages. A forum section where aspiring developers can contact and offer their work to aspiring content creators or vice versa. I haven't seen a category for it but I have been away for a while. Perhaps there is more detriment than benefit in streamlining the interaction this way that I've overlooked.

Thoughts?

It's worth noting that the best way to get a streamer's attention is to email the streamer directly, and that most of the time, they want to play whatever games are popular, or they'll go browsing on itch for a game to play.
