My brother and I have been working on an indie game, and I want to start trying to market it. I feel gross just thinking about that but it's a necessary evil or no one will ever hear about or play it. Anyway, I want to know how people discover new games because I think that'll help me figure out a marketing strategy.
Do you find them on social media? (Twitter, etc.)
Hear about them from friends?
Games journalist?
Streamers/YouTubers?
Friends, YouTube or just browsing digital game stores
Youtube seems like the main way people find games, I know that's how I do it! I have been working on a big list of relevant youtubers to send keys to so that my main plan.
