And this is what doesn't work in a saturated games market. Now what's wrong with all the stories about failed games? They all are generic. I think that makes them guaranteed sales. They still have the mentioned properties but also target only a subset of players where there are not many games. Then you have successful niche games such as Cogmind or the Zachtronics games. They either bring something totally new or bring something known but with a greater overall quality. None of them is just a "copy" of an existing game. None of them has realistic AAA graphics but they still look good. If you look at these games do you really think there is an alternative reality where they would not sell many copies? I don't.Īnd if you have a good look at them you should realize that they all are extremely polished and coherent. You have to look at really successful indie games, such as Terraria, Factorio, Mini Metro, Stardew Valley, Darkest Dungeon, Papers Please.
I think they all don't understand the real problem.
I see many people ask why didn't it work or others say he should have done better marketing. After being active in the indie game dev scene for many years I see this kind of story again and again.
