I have a PUBLISHER for my indie game! (devlog) Darenn 2024-07-31 | Do you need a game publisher? Here's how I signed with a game publisher, step by step.π Extra Content (Free and paid): patreon.com/darenn-------------------------------------------After over a year of hard work, hundreds of messages, and calls with dozens of publishers, I finally managed to sign a publishing deal for my indie game! In this video, I share my journey from being an unknown developer to securing a contract with a publisher, even during one of the most challenging times for indie devs. Whether you're an aspiring game developer or just curious about the process, stick around for all the insights and tips I gathered along the way.Why Watch This Video?If you're struggling to get your game noticed by publishers or want to understand the intricacies of negotiating a publishing deal, this video is for you. Learn from my experiences and avoid the mistakes I made, so you can increase your chances of finding the right publisher for your game.This is my personal experience, and I want to emphasize that some of what I say may be very different from what others have experienced or what you might encounter in the future. I was in a favorable position to negotiate because I had both time and financial resources to support my project. This allowed me to be more strategic and patient during the negotiation process. However, it's important to recognize that this approach might not be feasible for everyone. If you face time or financial constraints, or if you have fewer publishers showing interest in your game, it might be a reasonable strategy to be more cautious and pragmatic in your negotiations. Tailor your approach based on your specific situation.-------------------------------------------Hi!

Lueur, your fiery companion, lights your way.Will you be the ruler who turns a blind eye to disasters? How will you handle difficult moral choices? Can you grow your settlement effectively enough to survive as a beacon of light for future settlers?In Dawnfolk, you must balance your resources to explore your surrounding tiles. The choices you make affect the success of your fledgling town. You might opt to uncover a hunting ground to provide more food for your villagers through meaningful minigames. Or you might choose to forge a path towards the mine and yield a recurring source of lumber.Minigames add a unique challenge to supporting your people.

It is time to explore the shadows and rebuild your realm.Not everyone has time to invest hundreds of hours into learning how to play a grand strategy game. You can dive right in and start building your settlement immediately, going from a handful of tents to a big city in less than an hour.Dawnfolk was designed to feel familiar, yet unlike any building strategy game youβve ever played before. Unwind and play with ease, whether youβre at home or on the go, with your gamepad, keyboard, or handheld console. Go back to the roots of gaming, where exploration and experimentation are the key to fun and discovery.Set out into the mysterious darkness as you build to survive, thrive, or relax - the choice is yours. Experience the game on both macro and micro levels, as you oversee the management of your structures and resources, while also immersing yourself in mini arcade games to collect resources. Explore the world and story as you reshape it.Your choices directly determine the fate of your realm and its inhabitants.Will you succeed in bringing light back to the world? #citybuilder #indiegame #survivalgame #strategygames #pcgaming
