Thanks Jonas, this answered actually ¾ of my questions

Thanks! Followed your advice. I now have over 1 billion trillion downloads.

I love how well the "Will You Snail" soundtrack blends in with your "talking podcasts". I've heard it so many times in your videos already that now I just always feel hyped when I hear it again! :D Which brings us to the point in the video "the more often you see something, the more you like it", hmm? :)

"A compelling fantasy is something you would want to do in real life but can't" Fantasy of Will you Snail: Being killed Ok Wtf 😂

Omg, you have 24.5k Subscribers! Let's get you to 25k before Christmas!

This is a fantastic overview, it’s networking you need to get your name out there, but for the right reasons. If you are doing it only so people will play your game they will see right through you. Be genuine about your connections.

0:28 You give a damn first 1:03 Build an audience 1:53 Get people involved 3:08 Keep showing your game 3:58 Make an appealing game

Loved the trailer beat at the end!

Tip in making a good game: 1. Play multiple and identical games 2. Find the negative side of the games you played like design or game ideas i.e. Gran Tursimo and Grid what makes those two identical racing games different from each other Gran Turismo you can modified stock cars, Grid your car can get damage when you hit another car.... 3. Make games related to books, movies, history and sports and training purposes like building houses, cars and electronic gadgets.

Great video Jonas! Tip 4 is something we’ve been doing, especially thanks to you. That podcast we recorded is doing great.

Great tips I absolutely agree with you! The best tips for me is to make an appealing game but it's also the most difficult haha

"Being a soldier or a ninja is a compelling fantasy in a video game". LOL. Funny but very true. The theme park fantasy surprised me, but it seems to be true. I will keep watching for more tips!

Hi! I am a new fan of yours from Finland! I am making my first commercial game and these five tips were great for me. I have thought about building my community. But I have a problem, I fear that if I show my game idea too early, someone will steal it and make the game before I am ready. What do you think, is this a valid fear? Or just me being silly and too careful?

Hey jonas. I have commented 2 of your videos before (maybe 3) - I am developing a game since a few month back. Do you wanna try my game when its nearly ready? 😉 I memorized your tip 1), what do you think?😅

Thank you, helps a lot :D

Really cool stuff Jonas. Will you Snail looks Rad! Very insightful and to the point.

You really do supply us with a lot of value Jonas, I was instantly attracted to your channel, so thank you!

I used to get 10 - 15 views on my videos since I have used Reddit and Discord I get 200-300

Thanks for the good tips, I will use them all in future :D

Good video again. I hope and think my game hits at least a few of your points. I’ll see if I can get more of them checked off. Have a nice weekend.

0:07 wow those games seem awesome!!!!

Some great advice there! Keep up the good work!

Thank you, this video was really help full.

These tips are good but I already had released my game so... I don't know what to do now, I test other people games

Will you release the soundtrack on KZfaq when you are done? It sounds awesome!

Hi Jonas. No mention of reaching out to gaming websites and gaming influencers? Wondering if you think that's as important as your other points and whether you will you be doing that with Will You Snail? Will You Jonas?

What is the name of the game shown after the 30th second, could you please share it? (Who is this building upholstered?)

Dammit Jonas.. you are so on point. Thanks for this valuable video :D

Im putting my sweat and tears in to development of the game.... and my pc dies the day i need to release it

I would add something to the appealing game section: Make satisfying animations(effects),for me this helps a lot,and the people can imagene how it might feel when they would play the game :) For example if it´s a game with shooting mechanics add a knockback to your player,a screenshake when the enemy gets hit and mabye a bigger one when he dies,a effect when he sprints etc Edit:Jonas maybe you talked about this at the 3 section,but my fingers were faster,sorry :D

Love you Jonas. Keep it up.

my game is on steam, called "His Journey" if you want you can go wishlist it ;)

(PLEASE REPLY TO THIS QUESTION) What if my game is very fast and I can't take screenshots at the right time when It is the best scene?

You are a god, you gave me so much important knowledge!

*0:12** This should be a meme* 😁

5:21 My game: "Oh wow, this game is about being a snail, I love being a snail, and oh- it also looks so epic"

in 2020 what day will will you snail be uploaded

One billion trillion downloads, LETS GO!

I had to rewatch the entore video cuz I was too focussed on the background games the first time.

First tip is damn obvious, The whole reason I got hollow knight and ascent because it looks fantastic.

Well, these are ok tips BUT what matters most is a good STEAM PAGE and approaching KZfaqRS and other content creators correctly

Thanks! Kinda worked for me but i still bad at making games, people did see my game but leaving hate commenta about bugs and how crappy my game is, im a scratcher, i use the scratch website. But maybe should i try Unity or Game maker?

but how did Jonas know about the latent neon action snail fantasy in all of our hearts?

Im not a gamedev myself, but dont you guys think that it would be cool if the snail has a little backstory as well as the AI, that you can discover in secret paths or something, imo that would be dope

Thanks again!

Damn, damn, damn and damn again. Love it

5:08 Whilst I do agree with you about fantasy, I do think there are outliers when it comes to being a successful game. Eg The Binding Of Isaac. Who want's their mum to attempt to murder them, escape into a basement, and shoot monsters with their tears? I'm not saying I disagree with you on this, just an interesting conversation topic :D

cant wait for 2020

What is the appeal in Will You Snail? Being a snail, of course!

I tried to find something to make people lightning again because everyone hates me and games they Target to me...

I love this video, but why it keeps starting over and over again from 0:25 .... wait

Which Programm you use for game design

Tip 5 should be number 1! If you think your game is meh what makes you think anyone else will not? I see it over and over again. Devs think they can throw a turd over a wall and it will magically turn to gold!

Hey Jonas in a couple I will be starting a channel on a 2D platformer I am creating do you think this is a good idea?

"How do you make people giva a damn?" -Jonas Tyroller, 2019 (0:18)

Hi Jonas, I love your channel. I dont comment often but I couldnt help myself with this one. You gave a very truthful insight about game's appeal, yet will you snail for me dont deliver that. I mean mostly the environment and character - effects are awesome. I guess a gfx makeover might benefit this game alot, because if I didnt know you (yes you build your audience 👍 youre truly a giver) I probably wouldnt even consider buying it mainly because of the looks. I sincerely think that people who dont know you might feel similarly. I wish you a great launch and thank you for what you do, youre inspirational and awezzzzzzome. I dont want to make this post sound harsh, but i wish you and will you snail a success not only amongst your followers. Cheers Balthy

3:26 only seen them once 80-90% of the time. I only play mobile games and look for paid TCG and strategy games and usually don't download because of ads.

@jonas paid advertising?

I don't agree that your game needs to look nice to have appeal. Just look at Factorio. That game doesn't look perticularly nice but I still had that "I need this game" moment when a friend of mine told me about it.

If you want a French translation, I could help you.

Will the game "Will You Snail" be on the nintendo switch?

Another very helpful video! Great job Jonas, this will definitely help me in the FUTUREEEEEEEEE... Edit: Also if my channel grows a bit more would u mind collab? Cuz I think that would be freakin' awesome!

Can someone start playing a game called “Sandbox 3D” please

3:10 It's called the "mere exposure effect" I think. Also, one billion trillion downloads from appeal? whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Hey Jonas

Finde richtig nice das du aus der Deutschen Community raus geschafft hast gg

Hey Jonas love the vids. I just published my first android game and was wondering if you would give it a go and let me know what ya think. I am trying to get feedback but am just not a social media person. If so let me know and i will send ya a link. Thanks either way man.

Don't mindread us! This is scary...

Damn

Alle Münchener liken

Man nobody cares about my game some of my games ive been getting hates i ean lots no views and ive been bossed around and my acount got hacked 3 times by 3 bullys just for no reason i dont even know how roblox works.

0:25

i actually made a game, tho it's not very good, tho it's still a good way to pass time, i can link it here if anyone wants :P

So that's why nobody is playing my game.....

is my game gonna be famous?

3:04 mobile ads.

5:11 Ah yes... like having multiple kiddie gurls with boing-boing in love with you and urge to do love with them in a fantasy RPG setting where age doesn't matter. Sick of those games.

A prime example of the Ninja fantasy: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rbBomNVzm6_JeIk.html

I was shocked to watch you place a building at a bit of an angle instead of tightly fit in that Islanders clip, truly disgusting

the movement of that snail is garbage

loool the ending XD
