I get where you’re coming from but you still need skill/talent. Passion goes a long way for sure, but I would say his dad was skilled to some extent in the first place before passion kicked in.


Oh yeah, sure. That's what i meant. I didn't wanna say talent/skill don't matter at all. Of course you always need skill. Sorry if my post was confusing.

His dad must have had some real badass drawing/sketching skills at the least before starting. Otherwise he wouldn't have been able to create art like that.

No, guys, you're wrong. You're exaggerating it. It's not too hard to redraw a photo. It takes some patience and time, and not too much of an initial skill. He can't draw an art for the game, for example. In any style.

Either way Yeo, I do genuinely think tweeting Huber and Ben Moore can help your game out. As you’ve said, you’ve tried all that you can do so you really don’t have much to lose.

I will be looking to purchase the game myself.

Refreshed the game's trailer. It's basically the same as it was for greenlight.

Looking fine. The music and SFX sound great too. Hope the controls are smooth, because the animations are really nice.

Released the game.

Maybe someone here could tweet Huber at Easy Allies with this trailer. I don’t use my twitter, but he’s a huge Shenmue and Yakuza fan; if multiple people tweet the trailer and say look at this awesome indie game inspired by Shenmue and Yakuza, he would no doubt show interest and he tends to reply to tweets. He may even retweet or bring it up on a podcast. His twitter is: @michaelphuber

Yeo, I encourage you to tweet him if you haven’t already. Ben Moore from Easy Allies is also a good option. His twitter is: @benmoore035


Done that with no result. Everybody's just ignoring me. Still some Japanese site somehow spotted the game and even did an interview. I don't get PR at all.

Sorry if this is a little late (haven’t been on the Dojo for a while), but I can’t find a tweet to Michael Huber regarding this; can you link it?

Also, I just purchased the game. I won’t have time to play it rn, but thought I’d support you. Will give it a go when work dies down for me.

Edit: Just posted on the Easy Allies Patreon page, recommending people try it out and maybe tell Huber or Ben about it.
