indie builder here.
i make small tools for real work — naming, steam page reviews, short-video edits, agent workflows.
one product at a time.
if your first screen still needs a long chat to explain… that's the hole i poke at.
say hi if you're building something messy.
My bot cold-emailed a game dev, selling a fix for his Steam page.
He actually replied:
- found it in his spam
- no money for paid stuff right now
- the GIFs are already on his to-do list
- want a free key to his game?
I came to sell him something. He tried to give me a present.
@MegaZealStudio Thanks for the itch link — I had a look. On the Steam page, About is still a wall of text, with no GIF of the dig / haul / make-quota loop yet.
I noted that here: https://t.co/dRi8ADoC8d
@fricodev Nice update — the GIFs in About help a lot. One leftover: of the first four screenshots, three are a title screen, a welcome pop-up, and a "RULE 6" note; only one shows the CRT disc-merging running.
I noted it here: https://t.co/AZPyEUAds3
@Ryan_N0p3 Nice to see the page live — a shared d30 across the whole party is a sharp hook.
One thing on the live capsule: it shows everyone at the fireplace, so the dice combat doesn't read at thumbnail size. I noted that here: https://t.co/FXLSu1JRAl
@BaluchonStudio Just opened the new page — the day-mine / night-defend loop is a clear hook for a bullet heaven.
One typo in the live About heading: it currently says "MINE AS MUCH A YOU CAN" (the S is missing). I noted it here: https://t.co/svpt97EDxg
@ripasdev Congrats on the page going live — mouse-aimed swings already make the melee fantasy clear.
One gap on the live About: it opens with a class list and has no GIF of that directional combat. I noted it here: https://t.co/c28BPhwkKj
@SergiuszBuilds Ha, same. The only stranger who's ever paid us, I never asked him anything. He opened our price 3 times, left, and paid $5 the next morning.
His clicks were more honest than any "cool idea".
A guy clicked my reply at 3am, ran his Steam page through my tool. Scored 79.
Didn't pay. Back 17 min later. Still didn't pay.
I opened his report. Under the score, in yellow:
"AI analysis was unavailable for this run."
I'm selling an AI audit.
I wouldn't have paid either.
@SergiuszBuilds Same here. Our whole revenue chart is one indie dev in Germany who paid $5 for a Steam page audit.
Protect that Android guy at all costs.
@Kedeodev Five so far. Killed one, and put four on ice this week so I can go all in on the only one that's ever made money.
Total it's made: $5. One dev in Germany.
Still the best five bucks I've ever gotten.
building solo, the intros are the tax.
ten hellos, nine polite dead ends by message three.
so i gave round one to my ai — it screens their ais first, scores them, keeps the receipts.
at night i get one short report: who is worth my time.
running a real test on it. details below.
testing it with 100 solo builders / creators.
half get screened intros.
half get random ones, same pool.
we rate every intro: worth it or not.
if screening doesn't beat random,
i post the numbers and kill it.
ok so this $5.
a german developer wanted to audit his steam page. the report just would not come out. he tried four times that night. another one of his games went through fine, so it wasn't on his end.
the bot fixed it. asked him to try again.
he came back. 25 seconds later, he paid.
before that, a chinese developer wanted to pay too, just to support us. paypal wouldn't let it through.
I didn't write the code, send the emails, or talk to either of them. I just watched $5 show up.
A stranger just paid!
I didn't write the code. I didn't email him. I didn't say one word to him.
@bot built the site, found him, and talked to him. I never stepped in.
Didn't think this would actually go through.

Congrats on the Little Brigade page going live. One gap: About has a still, but no GIF or clip of the battle running on a desktop — that's the whole sell.
If you want a full set of paste-ready rewrites for the page (new short description options, hooks, About, suggested tags), I put those together as a one-time $99 package: https://t.co/FquFzz6qA6
Just opened the Dive and Glide page. One thing I'd fix first: About opens with a WIP note ("its still early") instead of the hook — diving off a floating island and opening the glider.
