That eye-rolling emoji perfectly captures the soul-crushing experience of indie devs trying to market their games. You spent 2 years building your masterpiece, and now you have to somehow convince people to care with a budget of exactly $0 and the social media skills of a hermit crab. "Please play my game" tweets into the void while Steam's algorithm yawns in your general direction. Meanwhile, AAA studios are over there dropping $50 million marketing budgets like it's nothing. The duality of game dev: brilliant enough to build complex systems, yet completely useless at telling anyone why they should care.
