oh i meant free dlc because by marketing it as a separate package you get the chance to differentiate from your previous failures

If you have time to work and money to feed yourself you could salvage it, some DLC releases with plenty of content, a rerelease with a shifted focus ala All Points Bulletin, or even a late marketing might be enough. Maybe its a better idea to take what you know and make a different game though. You seem to be coming from a place that games rarely come from these days. Anything you make would be interesting if nothing else, so that might be a better idea because you can get the marketing right from square one.

Then again you've actually made a game and i haven't, so I think you would know a bit more than me on where to go next. Good luck on whatever is next, and don't go to a big company, there's **** all for anybody there.

Much love from Quade

Did you market? Did you post videos and show off on forums and annoy twitter personalities and more or less rape the internet about your game? Because in my experience (as a customer) that is how you get success. Or at least break even.

A good product isn't enough. Its an absolutely necessary component but if you aren't generating and interfacing with a fanbase people won't give a **** about your game because they don't even know it exists. This one has a good look to it and seems like a game I'd like to play but it seems quite clear from this page you didn't do much work to make it marketable. Like the plain picture up top; you gotta make it attractive, put some vibrant colours up there, thats what came through in the screenshots as a strength so you should flaunt it. The idea is to trick people into giving it a second glance and then when they do you show them your great work.

And also you should try and get it seen by anyone who would like it and could show it off. Annoy every game commentator on youtube, give them free copies to try. If the game is quality they will see that, they'll wanna show it to their fanbase because its good watching. If its **** they won't give it a second glance but its your job to make sure its good.

visuals for sure. Note the question asks what's the first thing you look for not what's the most important thing you look for. Visuals are the first thing you see so their the first thing you'd go by. The biggest factor in a good game is gameplay for me but ****** graphics means i usually won't give the game a look.
