What are some tips, tricks, etc. for getting a game front page, and keeping it there for more than a few days? What kind of games, progression systems, and monetization work the best for this?

I haven’t been front page since 2015/2016, and the times I’ve been front page/massively popular, it lasted only a few days before it died down. I’ve had times where it would go on and off the front page pretty frequently/randomly, but nothing consistent.

Here are some tips:

  • Sponsor your game with robux, as-well as ads.
  • Run ads on the weekends and holidays. Big at-least 5k+
  • Make the game make people come back, eg daily rewards, quests etc.

Have a good banner if you’re advertising not sponsoring. Don’t clickbait, I don’t personally click on those. Not only that, you would want to make your banner such that it describes your game well. Investing in a GFX artist would be good.

You can read my post here and others have also said their opinions and tricks. Here is a tutorial on advertising which explains the basics:
