Hello guys! We need your help!

It's been over a week since we released Towertale. I think we had a pretty decent start, but after the first 4 days, visibility has slowly started declining. We're trying to be positive about it, but our initial first week sales vs our expected sales is pretty low. Other developers say that the first week of sales will determine your lifetime sales of your game. And if that's the case then we're pretty much screwed! But we're still trying to keep our heads up since it's only been over a week since release.

Towertale hits its first Positive rating!

On a brighter note, the game has finally achieved it's first rating! We are very happy that it's a positive! We honestly would like to thank everyone who gave the game a review and reported bugs on our forums.

We are a legit game, we promise!

Steam still doesn't consider Towertale a legitimate game yet. This is why you may see that the achievements in game isn't activating. This is actually not a bug but something that valve implemented way back. The game needs to have a decent sales threshold and player engagement in order for the community items to get enabled. We have already the Trading Cards, Badges, Emoticons, Profile Backgrounds and Achievements but we're going to need your help to activate them! Here they are, we are going to show them to you so at least if we don't hit our goal, at least you are able to see them. Badges:






Trading Cards:





Emoticons:







Profile Backgrounds:




Our team has worked hard and provided these items for the community. But if steam doesn't activate them, then they will all be wasted. That's why we need your help!

What can you do?

On the FAQ, they said these profile features will only be activated based on community engagement and/or sales figures. While we may not be able to do something about the sales figures, maybe we can do something about the community engagement. Here are some things, you can do to help:

• If you like the game, consider giving it a review!
• Consider taking screenshots and uploading them so people can see in the discussions.
• You can also post discussion topics about the game and engage in other people's topics.
• Telling your friends about the game is not required, but will be a huge help!
• Buying the soundtrack DLC is also optional, but it would help our composers a lot!

Sorry for the depressing start. But we just want to relay that we need your help in this. Though we know that this is the sad truth of self publishing a game while being an unknown entity, we still hope that you liked our game the same we loved making it. Hope you all have a nice day!
