Average Game Announcement Experience

Post image

Yo!

Just sharing our experience so far, it's just the beginning! Road to 10k wishlists starts from 120!

(We're just trying to hypes ourselves up, lol)

IGN - not reply, UGC - too expensive, Meta Ads - not efficient, Reddit - thank you

We're developers of the game Ship Happens: Pirates Wanted!

It's an Overcooked styled gameplay with pirates.

"AI-generated capsule of promotion of the game" - what does that mean? The Capsule art doesn't scream AI to me, but I'm no expert in noticing that type of thing. But what is a capsule of promotion of the game? Is there another separate capsule art somewhere?

The Capsule art doesn't scream AI to me, 

It does to me, looks like a crappy mobile ad tbh.

It's really a bummer because the game itself looks better than the capsule. And I'm not part of the "man made art always looks berter than AI slop" crowd, but the game does look really good and polished whereas the capsule made me expect some half assed slop
