Skye 📦Unboxathon Demo Out Now!!📦

Thanks!!

And there's always time to make the unboxing nicer later if there's time, MVP principles in game dev are super important imo :)

Any good advice on reaching influencers and YouTubers beyond sending mails?

I want to share my unique indie game, but so far I have not succeeded. One kind very small YouTuber wrote back to me.

If she makes a video. I hope she get lots of love. ❤️

Your game looks great to be clear! I don't have experience/advice in that type of genre though, but you can also join youtubers' discord servers and send a DM to the creator / a mod. If your game is superb, people really don't mind it, I've found.

Honestly it's the most annoying advice, but it's what has worked for me: Make the type of game that youtube viewers want to watch. So something that's popular on youtube and creators in that space consistently try out the new ones in the genre. For me that is clicker games, every new one gets played

I would definitely include tips about optimization like having the array be one dimensional but lookups being calculated through a function.
Idk just various quality of life things too, like having functions to fetch all the adjacent tiles, a whole row, etc.

Yep youtube loves playing videos you had open a while ago. This consistently happens for me if i click on a video, change my mind, and go back too quickly. Then i have to listen to HELLO GUYS while im trying to get the voices to stop 😭

yessss

"ALL MY HEROES ARE CORNBALLS", as one of my favorite artists said. Turns out he is also a cornball >.<

Wild! just saw this now 😂

Just got my GPU drivers updated so probably something related to that

Golden Filling is coming! Make some precious money by just clearing out the box 😎

Players sometimes expect hundreds, as a dev I know how hard it's to get them in there 😅
Good job!

I'm getting Unboxathon localized by professional translators! First time doing it for-real, instead of just using a crappy translator :P

Just got an RTX 5060 Ti, big upgrade from my dated card.
Editing & gaming are much better now ^-^
