@_wholesomegames @FutureFriendsVG The TLDR:

- Organic social media marketing can be hit or miss, but when it hits it really HITS.
- Opening shots are crucial.
- Listen to comments.
- Repost content to other platforms and see what sticks.
- Don’t be afraid to do it over and over again!

@_wholesomegames @FutureFriendsVG The reception on both TikTok and Instagram was super positive (nice!) but the instagram reel outperformed massively and got 4.5 million views organically in a week!

This bumped up our wishlists for Sandcastle significantly (over 50k in less than two weeks!) 🤯

I’ve been working on the sand erosion physics for my sand castle building game.
Still needs some tuning, but it’s starting to behave the way I want.
