I’m kinda torn because of this. I like for good games to get recognition and be successful. Part of me wants to buy the game and give it a shot because it’s been well received and I’m happy to support an indie dev… But I really do not want to help establish a trend of indies sleeping on advertising/spreading word, then crying “woe is me” after a single week when barely anybody was aware of it, as a way of guerilla marketing their game. I also need to watch a bit more gameplay to see if it’s even in my wheelhouse before I decide to spend $20 on it.
And it released 11 days ago…
Not even. This article was published 7 days after release.
These guys are seriously crying no fair and calling it quits after one week? Oof
Or they understand free marketing tactics.
This game very well could go viral now, given their “claim” of being ignored…
