I finally thought of a good game idea that wouldn’t take to long to create, and sounds like the type of game you’d see on the front page. I wanted to ask some ways to grow a community before the game releases, aswell as what I should do once it releases. I’m Solo-Developing the project and have a budget of 30k.
Mainly your budget doesn’t matter. I’m not sure how to grow a community, but others have had success with Discord and a combination of Twitter posts (NOT Mastodon) and videos (such as TikTok and YouTube). For one person this might be hard to do but other than that I’m not really sure.

You have dozens of ways to get other people to see your game. Firstly, Social media, you can create videos/upload leaks of your game on social media’s like TikTok, YouTube shorts, Twitter, etc. if you are advertising on social media, make sure you have a discord server or something similar setup so that people who are interested in your game can join the server for updates. Secondly, you can pay someone with a decent fan base to advertise your game/game’s server to their fan base. This can be YouTubers, tiktokers, discord server owners, etc.
