Friends and players,
It's been about...96 hours since Atomic Owl has arrived on Steam. Give or take? It's been amazing to see you all finally play the game.
We're also really happy that everyone seems to enjoy it! A million thank yous for a positive rating!
However, we need your help!
With any new indie game, a product lives and dies by its Steam reviews. Our particular challenge with this launch is that we gave away over 1500 Steam codes to backers, friends, family, and creators.
Why is this bad?
Well, Steam likes to surface games to new players and determine success based on Steam reviews that were purchased directly from the store, NOT given out by keys! So as a friendly reminder.
If you're on the fence about purchasing a Steam copy of Atomic Owl for yourself or for a friend, please do so and leave a review on Steam!
Steam page:
It will not only help us algorithmically, but also help show Steam that we have people willing to support the game outside of crowdfunding avenues!
That being said, it's International Owl Awareness Day!
Please remember to leave your community's friendly owls in peace, respect their space, and if you bird watch -- please do it from afar.
Be kind to our winged wizards of the sky.
your friend,
eldar
