It is great you were able to get approved for GOG. Because you did not launch there at the same time as on Steam, you won't steal your own audience and this should just be additional sales. So cool this worked out  About that, the GOG release overlapped a bit with the Steam Winter Sales. We also had a delay from 22 Dec to Today(5 Jan) because we released another DLC and we had to update GOG vers too, that process took some time too. Congratulations!  Thank you! Huge congrats for being approved on GOG!
Thank you! TBH I Don't know what to expect beyond this point I am not familiar with GOG algorithm and audience but I will do some basic marketing and try to learn along the journey, maybe I will also do a case study later  https://www.gog.com/en/game/chromosome_evilAgain I must state my enthusiasm and happiness because we managed to have these results without a publisher or middleman or third-party PR agencies influence Also ... Happy New Year Gentleman!  |

Noted! I have so many case studies to make, I need more time, more time, TIMEEEEEE I also released it today: a bundle with all 16 BIT NIGHTS games This I think will have long-term effects not sure yet, and will also require another case study    Link: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/29954/16_BIT_NIGHTS/Gentalman |

Big congrats for GOG release!  It's achievement on its own, as GOG is quite picky and not every indie game will make it there. |

Good idea, I hope it will perform great! Thank you Alain! This bundle is also a bonus but I do like to do trial & error type of moves Big congrats for GOG release!

I don't know if I will make a GOG case study anytime soon but long story short, financier wise I cannot even begin to compare it to steam but branding wise was one of the best things that happened to me |

Ever since we made Chromosome Evil I wanted to make an ultimate bundle with squad-based RTS games and my first choice was Strain Tactics, it is a good game, with a similar target audience, the perfect opportunity to make back 2 back marketing and some branding improvements on both side. Well took some time but I finally managed to get in touch with the developers from "Touch Dimensions" and I got a positive response and today the bundle was finally released. The guys from "Touch Dimensions" were very friendly and cooperative, I recommend any collab with them. https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/33948/Tactical_Squad_Creations/ And we also started a dev blog for the sequel of CHromosome evil: https://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=74643.0Along with a coming soon page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2529770/Chromosome_Evil_2/Chromosome evil is now officially a franchise. I know I haven't posted a lot about its development so far but our time is VERY limited, even marketing time will be reduced.  Gentleman |

Nice, the collaboration with Touch Dimension sounds great and I'm looking forward to read more about the development on CE2. But given that your schedule is pretty tight, you might not be able to dive too deep into devlogs, I assume.

Yes Alain, the time is very short  I had a choice today about making a game dev blog entry or a marketing article. I have chosen POONTAH   https://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=74839.0 |

Hope it helpt Now meantime as we get closer of releasing Chromosome Evil 2 we decided to prepare a short bonus DLC for the first CHromosome Evil. We also stated in the DLC description that this is recommended only for hardcore fans who want to support the developers. The DLC contains a PDF file with information about the game's development and lore and it will be released in 2 days. This will also enable us to activate another visibility round on Steam and use it to boost the sequel release.    |

Thank you for the support guys! It's been 2 years since the release and the game is still having sales and managed to keep its very positive rating. |
