Also there are about a jillion indie sidescrollers on steam. Standing out is important.

  Yes, marketing is very important!

    But is standing out _just_ marketing? Or is standing out something that requires originality in idea (as well as marketing to allow buyers to see the originality)?

      Promoting a game isn't enough on it's own. To succeed today a game needs to have quality, market fit, promotion, luck, and probably a number of other factors as well.

      Marketing isn't just ads, it means customer research and creation of offers users actually want. So marketing a game starts with researching niches and creating a game people actually want to buy. And then of course also target them with ads.
