How to make your devlog stand out / gather audience for your devlog

Hello. I'm a game developer currently working on game called "Hellashapes". Hellashapes is an infinite bullet-hell rougelite platform game with cool mechanics and has a minimalist art style.

When the time comes that I will give an initial release, I want to gather at least some audience that will sure to play the game and give some feedback. The problem is that not much wants to even look of the content and I do not have the slightest clue of how to improve the content or to even find where the right audience is? I even tried posting on youtube, twitter, itch.io and tigsource.

I was hoping if you could give ideas on how to improve the content or how to show my content to others.


Thanks you for your feedback.

I would say use reddit or imgur. Reddit gets a lot of views for relatively low amount of upvotes on popular subreddits. I posted my devlog 

https://virtuaworlds.itch.io/cthulhu-frozen-nightmare/devlog/153328/cthulhu-froz...

And it got many views a quite a few downloads 

thank you.  and also one question. is r/ gamedev good for posting devlog?
