Need help with increasing home impression and game quality in general!

Hey everyone! About a month ago, I launched a new mecha-based fighting game.

For the first two weeks, almost all traffic came from search, but just last week, I finally started getting Home recommendations yay

Now, while some of the stats aren’t ideal, I think this is a solid baseline to build from and improve both game quality and Home performance. The game currently sits around 30 CCU on average.

A few days ago, the algorithm seemed to “test” the game. It spiked to 280 CCU before dropping the next day and hasn’t recovered since. My guess is that Home recommendation data is still being gathered, and the algorithm is waiting on more D7 related signals from Home players before pushing further.


^As you can see most of the signals are blank as the data hasn’t been gathered yet

Anyways, I’d really appreciate some feedback or advice from experienced developers on how to:

  • Increase CCU and impressions organically
  • Improve retention and overall game quality

There are a few minor bugs left to fix, but nothing game breaking(that I know of for now). Any insights or tips are super welcome!

Hello there,
I see that your game doing really well right now with 900+ CCU. Would you mind sharing the game stats and did you put any ads before?

Hi, to reply on your questions, I haven’t put on any ads before. The stats haven’t changed much compared to the post. I think my assumption regarding the lack of D7 signals being blank was correct and once those signals started filling up the algorithm started pushing it more

Oh i see i see. How many home recommendation impressions did the game get per day now? and thank you for your respond.

Hey, your game looks super polished and nice, I do recommend adding passes though. Looks like the game took a ton of effort and resources, and as much as you may think people would prefer passless, I think many people including myself think its important for you to get yours too! I think customization in terms of cosmetics would go great in your game and the revenue can be used to up production!
