Developers can also assign a goal to how much money they’re hoping to raise through holiday sales for instance, indie dev Heather Robertson is looking to make $100 from her discounted game Secret Spaces. The site has 73 other bundles right now, some from indie publishers like Plug In Digital and others from developers like Bedtime Digital Games. Itch.io’s featured bundle is a mix of indie darlings such as Amanita Design’s puzzler Samorost 3 alongside lesser-known titles like Alex Camilleri’s autobiographical Memoir En Code: Reissue. Events like this can guide them in the right directly while encouraging them to use the tools we’ve built for that purpose, including running their own sales or hosting their own co-op bundles.” Furthermore, because we’re a completely open platform, it can be a big challenge for us to get a lot of smaller creators to promote their games. “We’ve asked developers in the past to run sales, but this time around, we want to turn it into an event to help connect developers and their audiences. Kudos will be given.“I wish there was a crazy ideological reason why we haven’t done this before but I guess the reality is that we’ve been hands off about organization promotion,” said Hayes in an email to GamesBeat.
