The game is seriously popular tho.
I used a AI program to find yandere games, and most newer, and smaller, games do not show up because it has zero internet access --so someone took the time to feed the AI info on your game. Which is a good indication it's a good game. Or at least a popular one.

And I know it's a trilogy; Steam says so on my wishlist. lol

I never buy games outside of Steam, but I'll be waiting for the realize of the full game there.
I like to collect all the good games in one place when I can. ^_^

Releasing the games one by one on Steam could actually benefit you more than realising them together.
People who play a game and love it will always want more and more content.
Being able to buy a follow-up / related game with their beloved characters after finishing the first one, even if they have to wait for it to come out, is always going to be common.

I remember the lines for the World of Warcraft expansion packs, even AFTER they started to sell them online, because people wanted the new ones the second they dropped. lol
And I personally always end up buying DCL content for the games I love because I want the story to never end, after I first get the happy ending I want. (Using the word 'happy' loosely here, since I consider a romantic ending far better than any other ending in a yandere game.
Even if that means you end in the hospital horribly broken and the super-nice guy who's never hurt anyone tells you he's going on a killing spree to kill those who did that to you, or like one end in Particles of Reality when Sebastian pulls the plug on you in the hospital and kills himself to join you.
Although it's of course better if you both live and can be together. But not all games allow for such a super-happy ending.
...and that's not despite the fact that the guy is bat-crap crazy, but because of it. lol

I make no guarantees for my sanity. xD

Oh gosh ๐Ÿ˜‚ I am flattered someone took the time! And AHH makes sense, I see! The demo (i.e. the first 2 games) should come on Steam sometime in the next few months (I just need to find the time to put the new build together ๐Ÿ˜‚ )! And ohh yes! Unfortunately Steam charges a $100 fee for every submission, and this trio of games in particular will be free (hmm mainly because it was originally intended to be free, and also because of the content that it deals with, I wouldn't want to charge money for it), so I figured I'd save $200 by submitting them as a trilogy instead of individual titles lolol but I do intend to release some more yan flavor games that will be separate ๐Ÿ˜Š A couple more early this year, and maybe one later in the fall! All of them will have romantic endings of some flavor or another, but I've been in a tragedy mood, so we'll see how happy they are... I hope that you enjoy when you get to play ๐Ÿ˜Š

Ah, I see. I didn't realize Steam took that kind of commission fee. I always assumed they'd take a percentage of the sales instead.
That would have been a more profitable choice for them in the long run --especially with more popular games.

If you have games that become popular on Steam, maybe you can release DCL content for them rather than a new sequel seperatly?
Is that cheaper?
I'm a writer, not a game-maker, so I have no clue how putting your game on Steam works. lol

Oh they do both (so $100 fee plus 30% of the sales). It's a reasonable ask and the $100 prevents the platform from being flooded with spammers, but unfortunately it makes it difficult to justify putting free games on there ๐Ÿ˜… I do plan to release some games with DLC  ๐Ÿค” hopefully it goes well ๐Ÿ˜‚

Wow, that's an evil (and profitable) strategy for a game page. lol

I look forward to see your game there then.
I'm sure you'll earn back the cost regardless. Your game is mentioned a lot of places, so people clearly love it.
And people tend to buy what they love.
