omg the people who just assume real art is ai are so vicious it really disgusts me every time, they're so "sure of themselves" without any level of research and just randomly accuse us which must really hurt our artist considering he takes more than a month PER ARTWORK
Bathory - Heritage Of Blood has now reached 20k wishlists!!!! This is the true power of our collective work together ! Make sure to continue spreading the word about Bathory - Heritage of Blood to your friends!
Proud of the makeup work today for a Lolita meetup 🥹🥹🥹 my career is getting far here ever since I started taking this seriously
This is my game's trailer, and you can wishlist Bathory - Heritage of Blood on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4670880/...
The response was immediate with clickthrough rate spiking up to 13-14% during the A/B Test, and Youtube's algorithm responded by increasing our impressions! So, the takeaway? Try things, run tests and remember that it's okay for your Trailer's thumbnail to look like it's a thumbnail for a Trailer!
...was designed to look like a thumbnail for a Trailer!
So, I prepared three thumbnail variants for another A/B test! The first was intended to be more clickbaity. The second was intended to evoke a comparison to a game we are inspired by. But the third, and the winner...
Around this time I decided to make new thumbnails for the trailer as well! The previous one we had been using was just our Keyart without any text or logo, and it had won an A/B Test against a screenshot of the game, with a clickthrough rate between 6-8%. Not very high effort!
Bathory had a hot start with the Black Voices Steam event contributing a large amount of Wishlists, but things were starting to drop off to an average of 100-150 wishlists a day. To keep momentum, we posted some TikToks and translated our Steam Page into Chinese, Korean, PTBR and Japanese.
After a slow start, the views on the Reveal Trailer for my new game Bathory - Heritage of Blood have tripled in the last week, increasing the Wishlist count by 400-600 every day. 🧵Here's why it's happening (thread):
$20,000 worth of royalty free commercial use video game music: moonanagames.itch.io/80-songs-pack and moonanagames.itch.io/81-song-pack Get a song pack 50% off for only $10, tell your friends and share the post is it worth it? don't take my word for it, just look at what the ppl have said instead

Canon powershot e1 takes some really cute pictures btw, recommend (the colors are less yellow than Fujifilm older models if that’s your preference, and I think I still prefer the color range on the ixus)
