This is interesting to me, because my experience so far has been the opposite. My game's a twin stick shooter, and the traffic from https://itch.io/games/tag-twin-stick-shooter is 4x the traffic from https://itch.io/games/free/tag-twin-stick-shooter. But both of those pale in comparison to the traffic that came through the frontpage and Newest. But even when traffic peaked, literally nobody tipped.
