hi Magicsofa, thanks for the reply.

yes, I will have to give myself a little more to do with the promotion, but to be honest it's something I don't like doing. lol

playing other people's games just to leave a comment for them to see my game, I don't know is what most people seem to be doing.

do not get me wrong if I play something it is more or less automatic to leave a comment with my sincere opinion, but having to do it with this intent .. I do not know. anyway I'll do it and see what happens, I'll probably start with yours :)

yes I do it for fun, I think I am one of those people who has more fun creating a game than playing, but of course I would also like to earn some money, at least to repay the effort and time spent ... I would already be happy with go draw lol

now i will wait to see on steam how the stats are etc and then i will use a better strategy for the next game, i have read about people getting 100x better results.. maybe i will have to put the price of 1 on itch too for consistency, i don't know I'm still just experimenting to get ideas,

in between I will do some promotion and work on something else, thanks for taking the time to reply!

No problem and I totally understand not wanting to promote... I am only just learning myself! What I meant about commenting on other games, was not just about expecting something in return. It wouldn't be right to say "hey, I commented on your game, now you need to return the favor." It's more about increasing the overall liveliness of the place... if we all just stay in our corner, silently playing or developing, then our pages will be quite boring!

yes i totally agree,however if they are all developers here I also understand why there is little general activity .. lol

so itch is a community of developers who make game jams, then some streamer or youtuber plays someone's game and makes the developer gain popularity, this is the hope of those who publish games here.

I seem to have figured this out by looking a little at the popular and itch in general .. actually it also seemed to me that the ones that gained popularity have made their games worse instead of improving them, lol

I don't know, we'll see. thank you :)
