🛑 Don't Stop Posting
Don't stop posting! In The New Internet, it's never been more important to keep posting, to keep getting the word out about your game.
Working on a new indie game? Then you gotta get the word out!
That means posting about your game on platforms like Twitter, YouTube, and TikTok. Here in The New Internet, "the algorithm" dictates whether or not people see our posts, and one important factor is showing up consistently.
So don't stop posting – keep doing it, keep beating the drum. Let's discuss this and lots of other game dev goodness in today's episode of Make the Game:
