The gamedev gods know I'm not the best user of game analytics. But this time I actually did use it and I found out that only 27.3% clicked the reward button after completing a task. So I added a flashing icon and a tweened button and VOILA it went up to 87.5%. #Gamedev #indiedev #gameAnalytics.

Yesterday I found my game on some of the #SteamNextFest lists and I got a panic attack when I realized that my capsule art was just too boring. So I did what any INSANE person would do and quickly re-did the art for my Steam page (new bottom). Hopefully it was the right call! #Gamedev #indiedev
