https://i.redd.it/y47wx4iuadsd1.gif A few yr in the past, I created a every day riddle recreation and posted it on Reddit. The sport gave the impression to be a success, getting tens of 1000’s of performs in a single day. Considering that I’ll have stumbled upon the following Wordle, I refined my recreation over the following yr. The plan was easy. I’d polish the sport, get lots of of 1000’s of every day customers, then promote to the New York Instances for hundreds of thousands and journey off into the sundown. Sadly, actuality isn't that simple. I used to be in a position to get 1000’s of every day gamers, however the pure trajectory was at all times 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 focused on shopping for my recreation. What I realized 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. As an illustration, Spelling Bee could be programmed as a weekend challenge and the every day problem is definitely routinely generated. So I believed – I might create a brand new every day recreation platform, one which options high-quality video games with handcrafted content material from impartial builders. The devs are on the market, however they don't have the attain. And thus I launched Puzpop, a set of every day phrase/mind video games. For now, PuzPop has 6 video games I constructed. However sooner or later, I intention so as to add new video games from different indie devs that present promise. I’d love to listen to any suggestions on the video games or the platform total. Additionally, when you developed a recreation that you simply suppose can be a superb addition, please shoot me a DM.
