Solo game dev founders experience severe burnout from single-handedly managing coding, art, marketing, and sales, which destroys motivation and revenue.
IndiePromoBoost uses AI to generate optimized Steam pages, social media posts, trailers, and email newsletters from your game screenshots and descriptions. It schedules posts across Twitter, Reddit, and Discord, tracks engagement, and suggests improvements, freeing solo devs from marketing drudgery. Burnout drops as you focus on development, with built-in analytics showing revenue impact.
