Get your game seen by the right players, press, and creators
Most indie games don’t fail because they aren’t good — they fail because they launch without visibility.
I help indie developers build structured PR campaigns that turn great games into discoverable ones.
Why most indie games disappear on launch
The modern indie market is crowded, fast-moving, and heavily algorithm-driven. Even strong games can get buried within hours of release if they don’t have structured visibility around them. Press coverage is fragmented, creators are overwhelmed with pitches, and Steam discovery rewards momentum over quality alone.
Without a clear PR strategy, even the best games end up relying on luck.
PR built for modern indie game launches
This isn’t traditional PR and it isn’t mass emailing press lists. It’s focused, timing-driven visibility work built around how games actually get discovered today.
That means aligning your announcement strategy, shaping your game’s narrative, targeting the right press and creators, and building momentum at the exact points where it matters most — not just “getting coverage,” but getting the right coverage.
Game Launch PR Campaigns
End-to-end launch strategy designed to maximise visibility during your most important release window. From announcement planning through to post-launch coverage, every step is structured to build momentum where it matters most.
Press & Media Outreach
Targeted outreach to journalists and outlets that actually cover your genre. Focused pitching built around story angles, not mass distribution.
Creator & Influencer Outreach
Getting your game into the hands of the right creators, with messaging tailored for coverage, not just impressions.
Press Kit & Messaging Strategy
Clear positioning, strong narratives, and press kits that make your game easy to understand, easy to cover, and hard to ignore.
Launch Strategy & Timing
Helping you decide when and how to announce, reveal, and release your game to maximise visibility windows and platform algorithms.
