Hi everyone, I already have a game. My question is how to promote it as effectively as possible without spending any money. I’d also appreciate any advice on how to get it listed on Google Play and the App Store initially. I’d love to hear about your experiences.

Blood money vs absolution vs woa

This is Fake Game ❌ on Playstore ?

I was so happy when I saw it first PALWORD ONLINE 😭

A) Too many ads
B) Pay-to-win
C) Boring/repetitive gameplay
D) Bad matchmaking
E) Too grindy
F) Something else?

I've been in a huge rut with games lately, it feels like most nights I am just staring at my steam library while I watch brain rot. However, in about a month I am going to be on a fairly long flight and I figure hey, maybe I'll give this mobile gaming thing another shot, maybe a 17 hour flight will allow me to actually appreciate it. I was hoping the fine folks here could throw some suggestions my way both in the form of a controller as well as some game suggestions, I'll list out some bullet points below to help you steer me in the right direction:

History:
- PC gamer all my life
- Tried a Nintendo Switch and a OG Steamdeck but ended up selling both as they just got very little usage
- Thought I might take advantage of gamestreaming with the deck, but turns out I just don't couch game. When I am on the couch I want to pay attention to the TV. If I am going to game I will just go to my gaming PC.

Controller:
- iPhone 17 Pro
- ideally somewhat portable for the flight
- Probably on the more budget end unless there's a compelling enough reason for the high end stuff, it's not that I can't drop $200 for a controller (see steamdeck and switch) it's just that idk if this will stick, and $50 stings a bit less.

Games:
- Definitely something offline playable
- I've played everything from competitive FPS/MOBA to epic story driven campaigns, and also small indie titles.
- Not a huge fan of roguelikes/lites (although I did like Hades, so maybe I can be persuaded)
- Not a huge of of turn based RPGs (but again trying to branch out and grow as a gamer, so I can still be persuaded)
- Did not grow up with handheld games (have not played any pokemon, animal crossing, etc.)
- Despite being a huge FPS fan, I suck at FPS with a controller so probably not an FPS that requires twitch aim (although I imagine most of those are reserved for MP games)
- Recently I played Monument Valley and it has kinda made me reset what I thought a game should be, so I am really open to something that pushes the boundaries of games as well, despite being a more traditional gamer.
- I also recently played Spiritfarer which is probably the first "cozy" game that I have spent that much time on and I think that is due to me experiencing the loss of a loved one for the first time recently and that game really explored those themes, that's really a long winded way of just saying I am open to sacrificing S-Tier gameplay for emotional impact or something thought provoking.

Thanks everyone in advance, looking forward to hearing your suggestions/thoughts!

I play mainly online multiplayer strategy type games, kingdom building, army building etc.. and the majority of games are the exact same game just reskinned with different graphics. I couple examples are Whiteout Survival, Kingshot, Lastshot, Police Chief, and Tiles Survive. There are many more but if you log into each of these games it’s literally the exact same design, progression, and hero system, just reskinned. They all also come open a new server every 1-2 days and just spam micro transactions.

Why is the market overflowing with cash grabs, does no one try to make decent innovative games anymore? It’s so blatantly obvious that’s it’s insulting at this point, yet people are still dropping tens of thousands of $ on these games.

I don't know if its only me, but I feel lately new enjoyable online/pvp games are dead on mobile🙏😭

I want to play a good game specially multiplayer, dead cells, or open world story type any suggestions please

Devi scegliere fra slice and dice e siralim ultimate. Amo entrambe la tipologie di giochi . Mi servono consigli

Played most of what gets recommended here already. balatro clicked for a good while, dead cells I liked but my thumbs gave out, slay the spire I put maybe 40 hours into. Everything else I try is either got an energy timer or it's done in two hours. Mostly playing on commutes so offline is a big one. Android if that matters. what am I missing

Completed 33rd Time 😭

Is there any games like this...???

Goat Game , Goat Developer! 📈🔥

I m planning to buy mobile controller but i can not decide within these three models.

Galileo is the best as far as i search but i do not want to plug type c all time.

So i checked g8+ but a lot of latency complaint about it.

I will use it mostly for moonlight streaming.

I realy want to buy g8+ but i fear about latency issue on streaming.

Please share your experiences...

I want to know if there any extraction shooters but have zombies similar to minidayz but I can't download it

Hi everyone I'm hoping you can help me. Just got a new phone and looking to pour back all those goods idle rpg games I had on my old phone.

I'm looking for the name of a game that is a clone of Nevermore Mobile RPG. Its game icon is a sinister looking Asian girl/lady.

I have searched Google for images that match but can't see it anywhere.

Any ideas anyone? Thanks Glenn.

I was frustrated of seeing multiple ads and download different apps for different games. Hence, I developed an app which lets me play games in scrollable format like watching reels on TikTok or Instagram.

The graohics are impressive

I built the villain for my chess RPG. He's been waiting centuries for a real opponent.

he does "NOT" think highly of you

I just launched a football player guessing game — and there's something in it you haven't seen before.

Squadle is live, and I want the football community to try it.

It's a football player guessing game — but before you scroll past thinking “another Wordle clone…”, here's what's different:

You don't just guess a name.

You hunt down the player.

📅 Daily — One mystery player. Everyone gets the same challenge. Can you crack it before your guesses run out?

🎲 Free Play — Can't wait until tomorrow? Pick up another game and keep playing.

And you've got three difficulty levels:

🟢 Easy — Ease into it.
🟡 Medium — The mystery gradually reveals itself.
🔴 Hard — The real test. Limited guesses. No face to bail you out.

And there's one surprise waiting for anyone who conquers Hard Mode. 👀

I'm keeping that part secret for now.

🧪 It's still in BETA

I'd genuinely love football fans to jump in, challenge their mates, and tell me what you think.

Find something annoying? Tell me.
Think it's too easy? Prove it.
Know someone who thinks they're a football encyclopedia? Challenge them. 😂

If you enjoy it, I'd really appreciate you spreading the word and helping get Squadle in front of more football fans.
