https://i.redd.it/y47wx4iuadsd1.gif A couple of yr in the past, I created a each day riddle recreation and posted it on Reddit. The sport appeared to be successful, getting tens of 1000’s of performs in a single day. Pondering that I’ll have stumbled upon the following Wordle, I refined my recreation over the following yr. The plan was easy. I might polish the sport, get a whole lot of 1000’s of each day customers, then promote to the New York Occasions for tens of millions and trip off into the sundown. Sadly, actuality isn't that straightforward. I used to be in a position to get 1000’s of each day gamers, however the pure trajectory was all the time downwards. No person was discovering my recreation organically, and the gamers I had would slowly depart. I heard again from the NYT, they usually weren’t curious about shopping for my recreation. What I discovered is that there’s severe energy in platforms. NYT has the title recognition and the attain, and can keep a big viewers even with mediocre or low-effort video games. For example, Spelling Bee might be programmed as a weekend mission and the each day problem is definitely robotically generated. So I believed – I might create a brand new each day recreation platform, one which options high-quality video games with handcrafted content material from unbiased builders. The devs are on the market, however they don't have the attain. And thus I launched Puzpop, a set of each day phrase/mind video games. For now, PuzPop has 6 video games I constructed. However sooner or later, I purpose so as to add new video games from different indie devs that present promise. I might love to listen to any suggestions on the video games or the platform total. Additionally, in case you developed a recreation that you just assume can be a very good addition, please shoot me a DM.
