Hi, it's been two weeks since the Steam Next Fest 2024 event and we wanted to share what we got from the event. Let's begin! 🔥 [h2]We got the total 2014 wishlist additions in one week of the event. [/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41151733/59e4ed2df078e55946f16845bfc239a21de3e0f7.jpg[/img] It's the best wishlist addition that we have ever gotten after over 4 years of development. If you are curious, let us break it down for ya! [h2]The good news![/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41151733/cffb6859df2b041147763636c65f9b2191293b9d.jpg[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41151733/4ca7941354897c21e3c17a0ae3676cf1d620fb78.png[/img] From one month before the event, we announced, update our social media and also released our December build to promote #steamnextfest . So, on the first day of the event, when we're doing livestream, it got 556 wishlist and 590 wishlist on 2nd day. we also got featured!😍🤩 [h2]The Bad News![/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41151733/bbe80b1961a4ce4885d8bfaa2eb49e2ba010a657.jpg[/img] But, from the third to the fifth day, the wishlist decreased from 186 to 124 to 120😭We got a little sad about the fact, but, fortunately, we already made a plan for the last day of the event to increase the wishlist. [h2]Plan B[/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41151733/d186e2b26092195f8fc0a1ccfd6ffc3b05a9846d.png[/img] We made announcement, update our https://elentertainment.itch.io/stellagale/devlog/678926/this-week-were-joining-steam-next-fest page and uploaded our SNF build there, and it got featured for like 3 days. We got on the first row in the RPG game, new game, hack-and-slash game categories, so as you can see the spike on the graph below. [h2]Result![/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41151733/dad5d86ff45df0310d80a507d1113532e7e9a46a.jpg[/img] We also doing our last livestream on the day before the last day of the event. As expected, the wishlist is increasing, it got 180 and 175 on the last day. All of these additions really make us want to finish the game because there is someone out there waiting for us. But... [h2]Twist![/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41151733/e436caba927fe907cb08734c370e8f01ec393974.png[/img] As far as we know, the number of wishlist deletions is also increasing, we got 111 deletions. You can see that even the graph looks similar with addition graph. So, I think player wishlist many game on the first day remove the game if they don't like it after playing the demo. [h2]So, that it our report for our game [b]StellaGale: The Trial of Faith[/b]. After all it's our first Steam Next Fest event that we participated and we love the result that we got even it's still looks small number.
