@ivangonlag @GameDevJackK Youve nothing to lose doing that, but they will want to see a trailer and/or screenshots at least.

[Frantic Thumbs Games @franticthumbs]

@ivangonlag @GameDevJackK You must without question, have a trailer ready to go. A demo would help but not essential as you could use another Steam event to release that with a launch date for example. No trailer? Delay until one is ready.

@MjTheHunter Give it to a bunch of randoms to play test (if it can be) and see their reactions, get feedback. Make sure it's the target audience for your game though.

@Knoebelbroet One key thing missing. There's no alternative to Apple/Google, while the PC market has several online stores to shop at. There is choice both for consumer and developers. Frankly, without Steam, there would have been no PC market as retailers back in the day removed PC from sale.

How do you find your next favorite game?

I'm excited to partner with @lucyjamesgames to launch https://t.co/xG1X0hxnBg (LFG), a new game discovery newsletter and platform built with @playerdotgg

@theprecinctgame One of our favourite games of the year.

[Frantic Thumbs Games @franticthumbs]

@geoffkeighley Excited! Thanks again Geoff for everything you do to promote our industry. Now that we're 'friends', can you reveal when GTA6 will launch? 😇🤣

[Frantic Thumbs Games @franticthumbs]

@UnrealEngine I just loved Super Bomberman and Command & Conquer. However my journey into the games industry happened from a complete change of career. Quitting a retail job and landing a gig with XBOX before heading into my first job in games.

[Hooded Horse @HoodedHorseInc]

Our Head Horse will be serving as Managing Director for this initiative.

The Special Opportunities Fund has already provided invaluable support to a few games in our own portfolio, and we're so excited to share the love with other indie games! 💙

[Frantic Thumbs Games @franticthumbs]

@Igorzinoficial2 @TimSweeneyEpic Steam is a little different. There's already alternative stores to purchase and play games from, which isn't locked to your device - like the Apple appstore is.

[Frantic Thumbs Games @franticthumbs]

@thegameawards Empire at War 2 and Battlefront 3, without the b.s Battlefront 2 had at launch.
