Recently something bad happened - itch.io changed their popularity algorithm and since then our views from there have decreased by a lot.  Now I need to figured out if our itch traffic dying is going to be a major issue or not. Therefore, here's a survey to learn where everyone learned about the game.

I posted a bunch of options into the multiple choice form to avoid different writings for the same source. But if you learned from it some other way, please put it down in Other.

EDIT: Since this is difficult to do with Patreons static choices only I'm using Google Forms for this one.

EDIT2: You should now be able to see an answer summary as well.

Another dev on Itch.io I support got word that they adjusted the algorithm. Apparently they boost games that gain traffic from external websites as "proof" that the publisher is serious and promote their game. Supposedly the "professionalism" of your page matters too. Bad change in my opinion. TFGS, back in 2017 I think? Been a long while ago now.

F95. Remember seeing your original artwork come up every now and then in the latest update tab on that site. Wasn't appealing but it had decent tags so I decided to give it a whirl. I was hooked right away. Game has only gotten better since
