Hello fellow developers, I have created the game Alien Defenders for two years and have different big updates. My goal is to attract players with big updates + little ad (around 5k in total). However, I already did different updates and paid for ad. The amount of players are still so low. Are there anything I can do?
Or do you have feedback for my game?
if it was me i would make the gameplay a lot better
like for a traditional hack n slash you want the combat to feel really smooth. like smash bros
then after you get players to stay longer just push gamepasses hard
Very cool game, SCI-FI GUI which I think is very good, and also very cool models like buildings, weapons, enemies, and particles.
I have some suggestions that you can add so that players are more interested in playing your game for a long time.
Make the animation more interesting when the character attacks using the sword, because in my opinion, the animation is very stiff, well I know making animation is difficult, but try to make it more moving.
Animated the aliens when attacking the player.
Make the character able to dash or run, because the map is quite large [Maybe you have made it?]
Make the first sword a little small, because I think it’s quite big, but if you don’t want it that’s fine
Actually you still have a lot to change and add, but I can’t say it, goodluck!
Thank you for your feedback also! I was solodev-ing this game for 2 years and released it for more than 8 months. I’m always improving the gameplay and hope to bring the best experience to everyone! However, may I know any ways to advertise / attract players?
Try promoting the game on other social media, such as Twitter, Instagram or TikTok, and also if you want to make an advertising poster, make it as attractive as possible, for example there is a noob being chased by aliens and then suddenly a big noob comes to help him like that
Do you mean Console / Xbox?
If you mean Console / XBox, I’m sorry that my game doesn’t support it currently. I solo-dev the game and couldn’t find time to develop on Console performance.
How do you get a weapon before spawning into the game?
Tutorials in my game should teach you. But you can press C on your keyboard and open Weapon Inventory. Then, equip the weapon you wanted. Don’t forget to assign them to your desired slots!
