I am about to develop and publish my first mob app game. Do you know any good ways to make it gain more popularity with the lowest costs possible?
Perhaps you know someone who runs a website or has a YouTube channel who might be interested to review it and play it for their viewers to see.
The game will be simple yet nerve tingling.
You can promote it via. YouTube, a Simple Website using a FREE Template / Blog, Google Ads etc.
You may also join some forums where posting about these topics are allowed and search for the respective category and post the link of your game over there.
Make sure you upload your game to
Google Playstore / App Store by paying the one time registration fee of
$25 or so, such that the users can download the game directly instead of downloading the
.apk file and then installing it (
which people may not trust easily)
Apart from that, if you are planning to sell this Game online then you can publish it on Envato Market;
https://codecanyon.net/category/mobilehttps://codecanyon.net/category/mobile/androidhttps://codecanyon.net/category/mobile/iosThis way your game would get some hits and at the same time you may get some earnings too.
Do note if you are planning to sell it on Envato then make sure you keep the price on the lower side at the initial stage, else the chances are less that users would buy it at the initial phase.
Wish you a good luck with your first mobile game..
