how developers in patrons managed to be popular

I wanted to end so many times. ) Now is not that time.About OD1 Yes it is my first, and that game is just bad. But OD2 to me was much better. But maybe people just not played it because they not played 1 or if they played 1 theay don't even tryed 2 That was very bad decision to making sequel.

or maybe they don't play OD2 because it's on hold/abandoned
people are different not all of people like the same thing (keep your style of making games)
and when you have a good complete game it will attract more people to trust you

good luck bro

I don't think there are some hidden tricks.

Just be passionate about your own project and it will also show in the product.
Players nowadays know the difference between someone who is enjoying what he/she is doing and someone who is doing it for the money.

Word of mouth is the best way to get your game around imo
