Also crazy that we used to have 500-1000 new downloads every day, but most players don't stick around at all

all time steam peak yesterday greenthing

Would be cool if theres an official ddnet tiktok account managed by some people

Just make one, but why does it have to be official in any way?

@joni_2210 Thanks for your videos!

We had an official YT account, and I don't think it was anything special, just regular runs like every other YT DDNet channel

Number of DDNet downloads on Steam

are those unique, or do updates also count?

14:55

*unique players

no idea! My sales stats just show "0 $" for each day

14:56

I didn't see any peaks for releases, so probably updates don't count

thats exciting, 500 downloads a day sounds like a lot brownbear

We are not making that much with it, but I guess DDNet just doesn't appeal to most people. And since it's free, no real investment to try it out

Maybe your right! I just thought of other games, they all have an own official account. We could (re)upload Tutorials and stuff to have an central account, especially for new players. But also some effort again^^

maybe we should add videos to the tutorial map of how fun ddnet can be

I suppose nowadays the first ten minutes/half hour of gameplay is the most important one. we probably don't make the best first impression

I feel like YT Shorts don't have nearly as many viewers as TikTok, some YTers could extend their reach by uploading to TikTok I guess
