Auto-post your game to 50+ indie communities for targeted pre-launch buzz.
Solo indie game developers' launches flop due to poor discoverability on itch.io and Steam, where algorithms heavily favor paid promotions over organic visibility.
DevSpotlightBot schedules smart posts to Reddit, Discord, Twitter with custom copy, images, and timing optimized for engagement. It rotates communities to avoid spam flags and tracks clicks back to your itch/Steam pages. Get 100s of wishlists before launch day.
