Marketing your game is just as important as developing it, but there are common pitfalls that can derail your efforts. Here’s what not to do—and how All Ages of Geek can help you avoid these mistakes.
1. How Not to Market Your Game with Traditional Ads
Traditional ads alone are often not enough to create meaningful engagement with your audience. They might get your game noticed, but they rarely build the connection needed to turn viewers into players. All Ages of Geek offers a more immersive approach with authentic content like gameplay videos, interviews, and live streams, helping players experience your game in a genuine way.
2. Avoid Generic, One-Size-Fits-All Marketing
Your game is unique, and your marketing should be too. Avoid using generic strategies that don’t reflect the essence of your game. All Ages of Geek specializes in creating tailored content that aligns with your game’s narrative and style, ensuring your marketing stands out and resonates with the right audience.
3. Don’t Ignore Community Engagement
One of the biggest mistakes is neglecting to engage with your community. Players today want to feel connected to the games they support. All Ages of Geek provides a platform where you can interact directly with a passionate community, gather feedback, and build lasting relationships with your players.
4. Don’t Overlook the Power of Networking
Failing to network with other developers and industry professionals can limit your growth. Networking opens doors to collaborations, partnerships, and new opportunities. All Ages of Geek’s extensive network and event participation can help you connect with key players in the industry, enhancing your game’s visibility and success.

Thank you for existing 😉 I think you’re a great resource for solo devs / small dev studios. I regret my personal situation does not allow me to support you monetarily, but know that you have my support!
