Steam page is live. Now what?

I know wishlists are the lifeblood, but the 'how' feels like a black box for solo devs. Cold emails? TikTok dances? Carrier pigeon to gaming outlets?

What's actually working in 2026 for getting eyes on a family co-op game?

Yeah, now begins the hard part. Demo+steam next fest is usually the biggest boost for wishlists, but this should be closed to the release. Emails, social media posts are helpful. The game itself usually defines how to best market the game. Go watch videos by Chris Zukowski for example this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQBdIGaZROE
