Nowadays? If you want to get a game in my face, it has to be via word of mouth or be blown in by the winds of Steam.

I took a look through my game library and these are the broad categories of how a game ended up there.

  • Friends (though I tend to be the recommender for my friends)
    • Path of Exile, Cobalt Core
  • I liked the demo at Steam Next Fest
    • Moonlight Pulse, Laika: Aged Through Blood, Cassette Beasts
  • Announcement through a game I already like
    • Jackbox series, Slayers X, Vertigo 2
  • YouTube channels
    • Game Maker’s Toolkit: Neon White, Toodee and Topdee, Assault Android Cactus
    • From other channels, but I don’t remember which: Gunfire Reborn, A Short Hike, Bug Fables
  • Sheer luck
    • I found Corn Kidz 64 from a tile at the bottom of a Steam store page, before it was released
    • I found Hypnospace Outlaw from Steam’s discovery queue…
    • …and following through the music credits got me to Queenjazz’s Bandcamp site, where I found an OST for a different game, Grapple Dog!
