Watch This Before You Make Your Dream Game

How do you know if your game idea is actually good before spending years making it? You've imagined the world, the mechanics, and how incredible it could feel to play. Now, how do you find out whether people actually want it? In this video, we explore how to test your game idea, find your target audience, validate interest with Steam wishlists, and use prototypes and vertical slices to move toward production. We also cover why an early graybox won't feel like a finished game, what player feedback can tell you, and when it's time to stop second-guessing and start building. Whether you're making your first indie game or wondering if your dream project is worth pursuing, this is a place to start. Subscribe to Superuser for more practical game development videos.
