    There’s no rule. Those games that disappeared in your app store disappeared because they suck and went into an app store.

      There are plenty of great games you will literally never hear about.

          Right, “oh well” is all you can say about that. Which is why publishers are useful to many games.

            I personally promoted a subreddit to 8.5m subscribers. If you can’t do that with some kind of actual value in hand, you kinda suck. Stuff that’s good will definitely make the rounds.

              Sure. Because you were able to find success, that means everyone should also be able to do it, no matter how different their circumstances are (like the fact that a game genre may be more niche, or that you actually have to pay for games).

              You seem like the type that unironically tells people to just pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

                welllll… let’s not bandy the word “success” around too much here.

                He did say “subreddit”, on Lemmy, for a start.

                People talk about what’s good, especially if you have good presentation skills.
