Wishlisting indie games - a thread:

When you're launching a game on Steam, ESPECIALLY an indie game that fights for space, wishlisting is one of the greatest and FREE things you can do to support a title! Why? Here's why:
Wishlisting tells the folks at Steam how excited people are for a title and how much they decide to promote it on their end with things like front-page placement (the golden goose of Steam marketing!), IMs (those pop-ups that appear when you launch the Steam app) +
and placing the game in the carousel of games on the front page. This placement of any kind will make developers weep with joy! It puts their game in front of people that might be a perfect fit, but otherwise would never have found it because there are 1000000 games on Steam!!
There is no reason not to wishlist games you find even mildly interesting! If you're worried about how many emails you get from Steam because of that, you can change notification settings to lessen that :) Plus you'll know when there is a sale on a game you've been waiting on!
So please, for the hard-working indie devs who pour their lives into their projects, do them a solid and wishlist as many games as you can 👉👈
Oh wait I did forget one of ours! NORCO is coming from @roboticgeo and SO moody and a neat piece of Americana. Mostly about an awful chapter in it, but INTERESTING none the less! And mmmm that pixel-art 😍 https://store.steampowered.com/app/1221250/NORCO/
I could go on, but instead, I will ask folks to drop recs in the comments! Self-promotion welcome! Share! Wishlist! It's free and the one thing anyone can do to promote indies <3
