Product Front▲144I've launched on Product Hunt, Beta List, Peer push and similar platforms but the problem is they only show top 5 on on first page view you have to click "see more" and scroll to see the next 10 products, also total products are up to 100+ especially product hunt, usually people don't scroll that deep if your product is above top 20 you're much likely invisible and buried down the list, On top of that, paid Ads occupies 30 - 40% of the screen, what about the small startups and solo makers who just getting started and wants to get their first users and don't have budget to advertise? It's…

Hey HN, I’m the solo developer of Search to Play, a social bookmarking platform for gamers — kind of like Letterboxd or Goodreads, but for video games. You can log your games, track your backlog, write reviews, and follow others. I’m building this as an alternative to spreadsheet tracking or platform-locked tools (Steam, PSN, etc). Would love your feedback! Happy to answer any questions here.

StackScope▲120Hey all, I built StackScope, a crawler/catalogue that looks at new product launches and shows what they were built with. It watches launches from Product Hunt, Show HN, and PeerPush, then crawls the public site behind each one. The goal is to show what people actually launched with: hosting, frameworks, analytics, DNS, security headers, legal pages, AI-builder signals, and other public clues. I started building it because most stack-detection sites look at the web as a whole. I was more interested in the current indie launch scene: what people are choosing right now, at the point they…

I have been in the position plenty of times where I am trying to get my game out there and there just aren't a lot of places to do it. Product Hunt is great... but it's a little restricting and difficult if you don't have an in to post. So I created Game Hunt. The goal is to help with the exposure of a game to people who might not otherwise get exposure to it. Here's the link http://gamehunt.co/ Any feedback would be great!

Hi Hackernews! My name is Sokrates and today I am launching indiebackers.dev I started working on Indiebackers once I realized that a lot of people (including myself) do all the heavy lifting, such as - A brand and logotype - Buy a domain - Make a landing page - Deploy a website - Coding if necessary All that jazz all to validate an idea? Existing platforms today focus primarily on launching. Indiebackers focus on the shaping of the idea until it's a MVP and ready to launch. Why would anyone want to become a early bird or adopter? What do indiehackers get from early birds and what do they…

Seedbomb▲12I've worked with many indie game studios (even been a C-level in one). I've seen many of them spending days searching for streamers adapted to their game niche. There are thousands of great and creative streamers but most developers ended up only sending Steam Keys to the big names. It often was a waste of time because they're swamped, charge high fees, and their broad audience is not even the studio's ideal players. On the other hand, you have thousands of passionate micro-streamers that: - have hyper-engaged niche communities (higher conversion!). - mostly promote for free because they are…
