What I especially like about this piece apart from that it is masterly produced is how they emphasize on different target groups and contexts for each trailer they produce at #coffeestain
Same accounts to every pitch, every presentation, every outreach activity, actually:

Thanks for the intention to help and promote your services, Vivian. As stated both in my profile and in this post, it's not my own campaign, it's a campaign a dedicated team launched on Kickstarter. I like the game, that's why I shared it. I myself work directly for Kickstarter.

Michael 🤠 Liebe @michaelliebe.bsky.social · Dec 18

Them to, didn't do enough premarketing. It's a great #game and ambitious team. It would be a pity if this game would not enter the (digital) shelfs. Only 3 days left. I have seen bigger challenges being overcome. Let's go!

They did not run a lot of premarketing - a strategy usually not advised. But with a strong existing community, you can also pull off spontaneous launches on #Kickstarter : @strayfawnstudio.bsky.social working with @metaroot.bsky.social to publish and push the #RiverTowns
game is fun to watch : <3
