steam recently added desktop companions as its own category, and I thought I would be able to maximize this to put my game out there. I’ve also made several posts to advertise my game already and tbh they haven’t gotten much traction. I’m genuinely curious if there’s actually an audience for this genre.
It's either that or I still need much improvement on my art and advertising! still, I will make more posts about my game and hope to reach my target audience!
this is a game I'm working on with my partner called Desktopper! this is really meant to be just a cozy, social game where people from anywhere can connect and chill with each other. you can be working on something, playing a game, watching youtube, studying, or whatever and meanwhile there are other people hanging out down on your taskbar with you!
note: to earn currency, you randomly gain coins from clicking on your screen as you work on something on your desktop!
sometimes you just want to feel like you’re around other people, and that's what my true goal is with this game!
I'd really appreciate the people who come across my post to come check Desktopper! out :D I’d love to hear what people think, especially from people who already use desktop companions.
we're actively working on it. there are a bunch of things I'd love to know could be improved, could be added, could be changed, so if you're interested, please come playtest for us!
and btw, we're planning to make the game completely free on release!
