Hello fellow bucket lovers! I’ve posted here before about my game called Do Not Press The Button (To Delete The Multiverse): STEAM LINK

And I’ve gotten very positive feedback and even a few of you did play-tested my game. From what screenshots I’ve posted here, people seem to like it a lot and today I wake up and find out that I’ve gotten over 5000 wishlists! This something I never imagined when I was starting this goofy ass project! So thank you to everyone!

    Just a tip as an indie dev. Some people could reach out to you to promote your games, defining themselves as curators, promoters and the sort. Check their history; abstain from handing multiple Steam keys for free. These keys could end up in third party markets (like g2a, kinguin) , reducing actual sales for your games. Check their legitimacy first.

    I went from being glad this goofy-looking game is getting some attention to realizing I wasn’t one of those 5000 wishlists already. Oops.

    Game looks like it’ll be a fun little experience, I’m looking forward to it!

    EZ wishlist, thank you for posting here or I would have never heard of this! Take the other commenter’s advice about not sending out tons of review copies to “curators” who will resell your game. My partner and I will both be picking this up when it’s out!

      Thank you for your generosity and your advice :) I remember actually getting quite a few requests for my FIRST game and I was happy to send out keys, because I was just content with someone showing interest in my project. Later on I figured that it was scammers…
