8 Summary - we leveraged trailer and demo for the release beat. We spread the news on social media, sent word to press and creators and tried to funnel as much traffic as possible to the page hoping the demo would go trending and become our WL generator. It did!

1.2 Trailer - I actually forgot to mention results from the trailer and I'm too lazy to edit this whole post now, but we got amazing results with the trailer on Gametrailers (notice, no IGN coverage 🥲) and @alphabetagamer.bsky.social

7. Send word to a small targeted set of content creators about the demo drop. We don't want to send word to all our contacts yet as we got more marketing beats coming and we don't want to exhaust them.

6.2 Press - here's the actual email we sent out! It's actually longer than we usual do. Ingredients: 1) Info about the game, 2) leverage viral post, 3) GIF, 4) Trailer drop, 5) what to expect (they need body to write a post about your game), 6) demo news, 7) links

6. Press - we knew Japan would love the game so together with @nnoroshi.bsky.social we teased it in advance a week before. Goal = get a viral post we can leverage to press! And yes! It worked!!

5. We sent word to social media news creators (TikTok, IG, etc.) and also posted shorts on our own channels. This time, the owned (Oro) channel performed better than the creators we sent to. That's why you always do both! Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose!

4. Social Media! People love cozy games. We knew the game did well thanks to @sweaters.bsky.social various posts. As such, we did a social media blast shouting out trailer from the rooftops to everyone. Big thanks to our partner @nnoroshi.bsky.social who took care of Japan with amazing results!

3.1 We used a separate demo page as we wanted to experiment with this. Our goal = 1) rank the demo page and funnel traffic to main store page, 2) gather reviews and (free) playtesting data of real people! We tested the demo thoroughly before so we were confident in its quality.

3. Drop a polished (heavily-tested) demo that gives you 30 minutes of "what to expect" of the full game as well as the option to keep playing (which helps with CCU consistency) through endless deliveries. Goal = habbit forming "your daily 5-10 deliveries"

2. A nicely dressed up, but minimalistic, store page with GIFs to explain the core gameplay loop. Goal = inform players what to expect.

6) The almighty discovery queue got triggered - Not gonna lie, this was A LOT of work, BUT... it was worth it because after 5 days, the discovery queue got triggered and that's when Steam started to do the heavy lifting for us driving thousands of people to our page.

5) Amplify - With this win, we sent word to the press such as IGN, and more news creators. Unfortunately, the press didn't really cover us (shoutout to
@BDisgusting though)... But we did manage to secure 2 other viral posts from @horrorvisuals.com (♥️) and our partner Neon Noroshi (♥️)
