Whoa, you made a This thread goes hard game :)

Right out the gate, I'd say you want some proper in-game screenshots to entice people to play. Key art is well and good, but it doesn't give the audience an idea of what they're getting into.

This is going to put people off. Mobile games are typically regarded as low-quality, and their PC ports worse still, so you should avoid the association if you want it to be taken seriously in traditional gaming circles.
If anything, just note it as a known bug and move on. Though preferably fix it, since you don't want any of your target platforms to feel like a second-class citizen.

Generally it's considered polite to engage with a community a little bit first. Get comfortable, read the room, and then drop the itch link.
Oh well might well be what you get in return, if the empty first-post project threads around and about are anything to go by; Shmupsfarm tends to meet earnestness in kind.

Indeed, I could already be too late, and typing this into the void :shock: fare thee well mysterious developer, wherever ye be.
