marketing failures?
how would you differentiate them with marketing? "yet another color bubble popper!" "yet another side-scrolling shooter where you kill the undead!" "yet another match three with fruit!"
i'm not sure i agree with your assessment as to marketing failures. if you said me-too-market-fit, however, i'd say you were on to something.
their level of polish is pretty nice, so they should step out of the lottery and make a non-me-too quality game. i bet they would be pretty successful with it. in fact, if they keep with it, i'd put money on it they'll eventually be very successful.
- yeureka 12y agoI hope you are right - that a fun new gameplay with an adequate level of polish is enough for moderate success. I guess that deep down I also believe the same and that is what makes me keep on going to finish my side project.
- skeoh 12y agoAre you comfortable sharing any details on your side project? Stuff like this interests me.
- yeureka 12y agoIt's a game I have been working on for some time. The gameplay is simple and easy to copy and that is why I have been reluctant to show it to too many people. I hope to finish it in the next 6 months but It could take longer depending on how much spare time I have for it. I am planning on showing it to the HN crowd first - the support is always pretty good here.
