Here are a few tips I have for using and growing on Bluesky as a gamedev.

1 Interact. Post about your game, reply to comments, and comment on others posts.

2 Be nice. This isn't Twitter. Be positive, help people, don't look for arguments.

3 Be consistent with your posts

I like to talk about my game, but I don't like to explicitly advertise it.

But it is my birthday today, and I am OLD so I will make an exception and say go wishlist my game please.

Even if you un-wishlist it later that's fine, I just want to see number go up.
