HOW TO CREATE A TRAILER!!

- NO LOGOS: Cut to GAMEPLAY. Logos are not selling points.

- NO LORE: Focus on what the player is going to DO in the game.

- Keep it short: you don't need more than a minute in your trailer.

Make every second count!

75% of all games that reached 1K reviews did it within 3 months of their launch.

If you released a game following all the right steps and it still did not get good numbers, maybe it's time to let go.

And that's okay! Hardly your first experience will be your viral game.

Get on the next one ASAP!

The Oblivion Remaster trailer is actually bad... for indie devs.

40 seconds of lore and enviroments, only works for Bethesda and big studios.

Indie games trailers should ALWAYS focus on MECHANICS, gameplay. Show player what they'll actually do in the game.
