Marketing your game is about building your audience. I highly recommend not putting all your efforts into trying to get featured in a specific spot, but instead try to go for a wide reach and use all channels you have available.

When we select games to be featured on the homepage it’s often because there are other indicators that tell us that the game is something people would like to come across. We typically don’t feature a game because someone randomly asks us to.

Hope that helps!

Thank you for your reply :)

I don't put all my efforts into trying to get featured in a specific spot. I have mainly used Reddit for promotion and the response from Reddit has been great. I've also posted the game on a few other forums but with little attention.

There are "indicators that tell me that the game is something people would like to come across" because I've gotten nothing but great response. I've never made a game that's gotten this great response before and that's the reason I thought the game could be "eligible" for the 'Featured Games-section'. I understand that there are a billion games out there and only a few games can get that extra attention on the homepage so I wasn't expecting it to be featured but I thought it was worth giving it a shot. 

Thanks again! I'll try to promote my game further and build an audience in other ways :)

Cheers,

Tommy
