Choose a useful next step.

Start with what the recipient needs to assess your game. A clear pitch and useful material make the next step easier to understand.

  1. Prepare the material

    Read the press-kit guide, check the links and explain what the player does.

  2. Choose the recipient

    Use an outlet’s or creator’s current submission instructions and explain why the game fits their coverage.
