Hey whoever is reading this. I'm trying to effectively make devlogs as I make my next game but the issue seems to be that the game page needs to be publish for dev logs to appear. Searching online I came across this thread, in which leafo has stated:
"I recommend creating a game page and writing devlogs. You can add files to the page when you’re ready and make a “Major update” post to announce that the game is now available. Where did you read that launching an in-progress game page is not recommended? We have plenty of pages like that. The sooner you create a page the sooner you can start getting followers and having people add the project to their collections."
Yet on the content creator guidlines page it states:
"In general, you're better off polishing your page before publishing it, otherwise people will be more likely to pass over it when browsing Most Recent.
Note: Feel free to share Draft or Restricted pages, as they aren’t eligible for showing up on our browse & search pages, and will not be placed on top of New Releasees."
This leaves me to some confusion on how its calculated and what choice may be best for my game. What would best practice be for devlogs of unreleased games such that people will see my devlogs, while ensuring my game shows up in new ?
