Dev Twitter Dead?

[KlLLJOY]

Just a quick question, I stumbled on this game just by chance and loved what I saw, I'm a massive U-Boat fan and game artist, so seeing a indie group making a U-Boat game, well it got me exited, it is always nice to see what my fellow game artists/devs are up to, however when I checked out their twitter I found out its dead since June, so the basic question is, what happened?

What Twitter? Where do find a Twitter link? We aren't using Twitter.

Well here: https://twitter.com/SkvaderStudios

Wolfpack is a rename/reboot/continuation of the HMS Marulken game am I right?

If its your's or the dev's and it's outdated, ether ask for it to be removed or renew it and continue using it, it will prevent confusion

Give my complements to the team btw

Ah, I see. Thanks for pointing that out. I'm sort of an anti-twitter person, so I don't keep it up. Will be updating here, FB, and Wolfpackgame.com but not Twitter.

Yeah I use twitter a lot, hence how I found it, use it mainly for work/self promotion, talking to clients and fellow artists, it does the job, but I'll keep my eyes open on the project here from now on

It seems a bit of an odd attitude to allow your personal opinion of something dictate how this game is going to be marketed. Wolfpack is a business now and I would have thought you would need to get the project out on as many popular social media platforms as you can regardless of how you feel about them? I personally get most of my updates from developers and game studios from Twitter and rely on it a lot for instant mobile notifications. Don't assume your fan base aren't using it.

No offence, but I think its a bad decision to dismiss twitter as a viable marketing platform, especially when compared to Facebook.
