You post it here? Give away some promo codes at Meetups or other gatherings where programmers congregate? It’s not like this would be any easier without Steam.

  > You post it here? I tried. Twice. Even made a browser playable demo: https://roguebit.bigosaur.com/ https://roguebit.bigosaur.com/ Mostly got ignored (a single upvote on the post). > It’s not like this would be any easier without Steam Of course. This is exactly what I was trying to say. No Facebook ad can match Steam. With Steam algorithm, you can laser-focus the type of players who play this type of games. Without Steam you have to spend so much time and energy.

    Quick feedback: If you change the trailer to show some game play, I think it would improve your conversion rate. As stupid as this sounds, I have discovered I'm too lazy to try the browser version (but not too lazy to give you a reply -- that is weird...) The trailer just didn't hook me and I found myself thinking, "I don't have enough energy to learn how to play the game right now. Maybe later". But I know "later" will never come. To be fair, I'm not a fan of puzzle games and this looks like a puzzle game. However I think the engagement issue may still affect other people.

      Yes, it is a puzzle game. Thanks for the feedback. I will consider changing the trailer.
