Festival Fit & Submission Tracker
A database and workflow app that helps game developers identify the most relevant festivals, estimate fit based on genre and style, and manage application calendars and materials. It would be most useful for teams that see platform events as a major visibility channel but are unsure where to apply first.
これが重要な理由
You know festivals and store events can create valuable visibility, but figuring out which ones matter is messy. Every event has different themes, deadlines, formats, and submission expectations, so the process turns into scattered notes and repetitive research. Applying too broadly wastes time, but applying too narrowly risks missing the few opportunities that truly fit your game. What you want is a software layer that tells you where your game belongs, keeps all requirements in one place, and helps you prepare submissions without rebuilding the process from scratch every time.

- 2Maintaining accurate event data could become labor-intensive without enough revenue.
- 3The product may be too narrow unless bundled with broader launch-planning features.
エビデンスの概要
AIがこのインサイトをどのように統合したか — 逐語的な引用はありません
A smaller but clear thread focused on how to choose festivals and what criteria matter for acceptance and fit. One response described selective applications across many events over two years, implying a recurring but manual process. Since another participant claimed festivals outperformed ads for visibility, this workflow has real perceived value, though the niche is narrower than market validation or outreach tooling.
