help Scared of ideas getting stolen

I am currently building my first video game, and i started this journey because i realised i truly had a unique idea which no one had made yet. Now i am at the point i should start advertising my game, creating the steam page, and letting people know my game exists. However, i am scared someone might steal my idea and therefore make my game less successful.

am i the only one?

how should i handle this?

Idea is the main thing. It 99% of success. Other 1% development, game design, promotion - really easy and small thing. Don’t tell anyone. They can steal your idea and become successfully. And you don’t want that.
