Sometimes developers focus so much on the pitch deck, market research, features, or monetization… that they forget the most important thing:

Is the game actually fun to play?

Can you look at it objectively enough to hear honest feedback?

That “magic” feeling publishers talk about is difficult to fake and people usually feel it within minutes of playing a demo.

Follow us for more real industry insights, publisher perspectives, and behind-the-scenes looks into how games actually get signed. 📝

If you missed it or want to revisit the pitches, you can watch the full session here: https://youtu.be/O0XBpWJz6Vo

Curious what publishers actually ask during pitches? This is probably one of the most transparent ways to see it in practice.

It was a pleasure and a privilege to get a guided tour of gamescom latam by one of the main men himself, André Poubel. Obrigado! 🙏

Oh, and a classic networking moment:
- “Let’s connect via LinkedIn!” 🤝
- “Wait… we’re already connected.” 👀
- “Old buddy!” 😍

Now, 2 busy days packed with meetings ahead of us...

30,000 games a year. Fragmented audiences. Unpredictable algorithms.

The gaming market didn't get worse, discovery did.

As our co-founder mentioned in a recent CzechCrunch interview:

"Before COVID, you could estimate a title's sales within around ten percent. Today? It's practically impossible."

At Sail.game, we think good games deserve better than luck. So we built a platform that combines Steam data, hundreds of publisher conversations, and real consulting expertise to bring some clarity back.
