games

The demo material is basically done outside of that new content thing and then cleaning up everything to make the actual demo version

yeah, from my very cursory steamDB look

free games (not demos) need 20-40 to kick-off charting

We don't have that much longer I don't think

demos have higher initial support because Steam is pushing them so hard rn

The deadline is sometime in october and you probably need it up like 2 weeks before then

are you trying to hit the nextfest?

So like

the deadline is sooner if so

A month

yeah

I posted it, let me find it again

Well me and garbage had like 30 arguments on when the deadline was

He insisted it was later than i thought

Oh there is one issue spooky, which is that I can't build LJG on my current PC

I could fix that if i sat down to do it but

Steamworks has this new view

that's super useful

Do we need Lennod jump game for something

only if you wanted to try to thing I was suggesting earlier

and get it to chart on its own again

since Steam is really open rn

there's a window for the next couple months, before people start to abuse it and it become non-effective

I'd say just focus on Toshin Gent

Well I don't know how we'd get 20-30 people together

and if you can get the demo out in time

This next NextFest will probably be a big one

since Valve has seemed really on this demo system the last couple months

I think we probably could get 20-30

Maybe like

Have a "LJG day" event

Where the whole server is invited to play LJG

Yeah we just need to have a day

See this is where the miniscule filesize comes into play

You can download it in like 2 seconds

You can open it on multiple computers

Just make 20 steam accounts

Also, I'm pretty sure I should spin up a VM, and use a burner Steam account to run these game 24/7

There is at least one person already doing that

Although they probably do that for like all free games or something

It's over chat

LJG has had 1 average daily player every time I check steamworks

Or well at least 1, sometimes it's 2

Anyway spooky

I can leave ljg on all the time

I don't care

I guess we should probably make the actual steam product as soon as we can

yes Pirate

Oh my god

Since it doesn't really matter if that's done "too soon"

Official art time

and Rusp, if I do it I can scale it, because simple VM for each Phijkchu Game

The only final thing that has to be decided at the start is the name right

Yeah you do it then

Oh

Right we're probably not naming it toushin gent

No?

...

I was planning to

Oh okay

I remember discussions of it being placeholder

Because it's not even really a name

Well we talked about it possibly being a placeholder

but it kind of just is the name

so, divorce it from our Gent

it's a good name

gent as in a gent

What else could we possibly name it

toushin is a nonsense but interesting word

"he's a toushin gent"

That doesn't work because it's very clear gents name is gent and it means nothing rlse

no but for someone clicking on it

it's a good name imo

Hmm

Okay spooky as soon as you can make a steam product for Toushin Gent, if you need to set a price from the start just do 4.99

not the best ofc

but I think it's a decent store page name

that if paired with a real game, isnt' a turn off
