Real Talk: if you post on platform(s) expecting results, you're prob gonna be super disappointed.
Its getting exponentially harder to get noticed. Even trends like #PitchYaGame aren't enough to cut it.

Making video games is easy, anybody can. 😌
BUT..
Making quality games, is not.
Making successful games, is not.
Finishing, making video games, is not.
Making said game shippable and shipping, is not.
Supporting said shipped game, is not.
Making multiple games at once; never. 😤

PYG is a window; a lens into depths of creativity.
2 days out of 365 we get to recognise, and celebrate indies worldwide.
For that, I'm proud. 🤗
