if im making game as good as this, and if im reliable as these guys are, i certainly wouldnt "cross promote" any shit (games/devs quality related), yet would chose those advertisements more carefully.
what could be next - cross promotion with icstor? his numbers could be on decline...or with gumdrop, etc, etc...
meanwhile, there are many good games/devs left in shadows, as those probably arent that aggressive as those shit-devs are, even when it comes to cross promotions.
my six cents only.
I get what you guys are saying and it's a valid point. i haven't played the game they were doing the cross promotion with and I probably won't. I don't pay to much attention to cross promotions. I'm sure they were just going off of number of patreon supporters more than was the game/dev any good. There is the other side of that argument though saying you are better off doing it with a lesser game/dev with a lot of supporters. This way you have a better chance of stealing their patrons then losing yours to them.No, I get that, but it's like would you cross-promote your game with something like "Quiet Man" or "Ride to Hell: Retribution?"
There are definitely games I, if I was a developer, wouldn't want to be associated with.
And if I'm completely honest, if Cheeky does shout-outs aka cross-promotions for games he doesn't know or doesn't really believe are good, that is really not something I find all that great.
I don't know how often or how many games the development team for this have played. It's probably a good way to get some ideas, but you'd hope they are spending more time developing their game then playing others.
