Replying to @InGameMenu
or make sure the game is updated on @IGDBcom which provides a presskit template. And you really should update IGDB as it powers Twitch Categories.
Heres CONTROL Resonant as an example igdb.com/games/control-reson…

So, you wanna make videogames?
You can't worry about things like crowds, competition or discovery. A million 'experts' online will tell you all the ways you will fail. In many ways the world was simpler and easier without the internet. You just made things. You focused on making your game. You were never going to compete with EA or Origin so who cares?
There is a never ending hunger for good games. If this wasn't true the indie games wouldn't be huge today and shareware in the early 90s never would have been a thing. Turns out people everywhere just want good games - at all sizes, scopes and price points.
Don't worry yourself out of making a game. Don't listen to internet experts telling you all the negatives. Ignore everything and focus on skills and making a good game. Get in there. Always room for one more game.

#indiedev, get your game in the #twitch database so it has it's own category and people know that creators are live streaming your games.
You have to put it on @IGDBcom like I did for my game!

Your game listed as a Twitch game/category so streamers can select it:
Your game needs an entry on IGDB (Internet Game Database) Twitch uses IGDB for game data/categories.
Go to IGDB and sign in with Twitch.
Search for your game first. If it doesn't exist, choose Add Game.
Submit the title, cover, release date, platforms, developer/publisher, website/store links, etc.
Once IGDB approves the entry, it can propagate to Twitch's category system.
After propagation, streamers should be able to select your game under Category when setting up their stream.
You don't normally create the Twitch category directly from your developer Twitch account, the IGDB listing is the key step.

Dear Indie Developer,
Have you submitted your game to IGDB.com yet?
It's vital for streamers to tag it.
Don't forget before Steam Next Fest!
With love, Kryon Harts
