@bonginpublic 13.8s. And yes, it moves from frame one: a naked dwarf walks at the camera with a forester behind him, and the question "Is Steam going to block my game?" is already on screen. It's short enough that replays probably help that number too.
My Short sat dead last on my channel for a whole hour.
Then it took off: 2K views, 98.9% average viewed, my best yet πͺ
Not exactly a viral hit, and I'm still at 13 wishlists, but for a tiny channel this made my day.

Fellow gamedevs: how do you get wishlists?
My Short: 1,225 views, 49% stayed to watch, 0 wishlists. I'd also forgot the Steam link on my channel. Fixed now.
What actually worked for you?

@DumpsterManTTV Friendslop in S tier? Good, because I'm making Totally Legal Logging: up to 6 dwarves cut down someone else's forest, and every machine takes either wood or your friend. Typing this before watching the 40 minutes πͺ

@AnalogDreamDev Congrats, that's huge! What brought in most of those wishlists: one video that took off, or something else? My page just went up and I'm trying to learn what actually works.
@AlonelyCat31 Hi Cat, congrats on 2.4K! I'm a solo dev working on Totally Legal Logging, a co-op game where up to 6 dwarves cut down someone else's forest before the forester shows up. Would love to join the group chat and connect with creators πͺ
@Giulio6686 Solo dev making Totally Legal Logging: a co-op game where up to 6 dwarves cut down someone else's forest before the forester shows up. Also, your friends fit in the machines πͺ
@ConnorEllison Mostly friends: Steam invites from your friends list, plus a one-time code as a backup. You and your crew start in your own lobby on a small floating island, then pick a contract and fly out together πͺ
Here's the first trailer for Totally Legal Logging πͺ
Up to 6 dwarves, one totally legal contract, and a forester who's already on his way.
Wishlist on Steam π
