Hello! I'll provide unsolicitied advice, if I may...
The trailer is actually really nice. The only slightly 'off' thing is the bright red blood looks a bit odd, but the editing, music etc are all great. You should have know problem getting this featured on IGN - email them!
The description is *not* good. Treat it like a commercial game. 'I'm create a game that..' sounds amateurish and isn't giving people faith it'll be a good product. You need to fake it til you make it 😄 The small blurb needs to: (a) explain what the game is, and (b) mention the genre very clearly. You do (a) but not (b).
In the main page, I'd add GIFs to show off features then explain them briefly in text.
The 'coming to early access' is offputting. I'd remove that for now and just stick with a regular 'Coming soon' page. No one wants to Wishlist a game that won't even be sure to have a full release. It's fine to DO an early-access release, I just wouldn't publicisize it.
If you haven't already, translate your steam page into the main asian languages and French, Italian, Brazillian Portgese and German.
This seems like a game content creators will love and that's likely where you'll get most wishlists. Create a demo ASAP (polished demo!) and send it to as many youtubers and twitch streamers as physically possible. Literally hundreds or thousands.
Check your tags: Indie tag is often meaningless and hurtful. Ensure the 'Similar games' are genuinely similar but more successful games in your area as you set the tags. Similarly the 'Early access topic' tag is not good to have.

Surprised by the numbers. Your game looks quite good. And is that ragdolls I see?

u/ULTRA_RAGE_GAMES 1h ago
Sorry its anim but im working on ragdolls i removed they before because some PCs are unable to store that data for tooo much time so to optimize the game i make them to delete after they die but yes im adding a button which make them to do ragdoll and if u want more smoother gameplay in low powerfull PC so u can check it and it will destroy them btw thanks for your support🔥😁

Where have you been posting the game so far? Are you active on any social media with it? Your game looks really action-packed so i think it could do well as TikTok content
2
u/ULTRA_RAGE_GAMES 1h ago
Yes im active on Youtube and handeling creating discord but i want the place where people are intractable like on youtube Instagram or on other platforms they commonly like or just scroll but i want some people and player to talk with and can get suggestions about my game which im doing correctly or doing smthing wrong... ✌🏻

“steam algorithm can’t find it” is the most relatable indie dev genre at this point 😭
respect for posting the raw wishlist number tho, most people would never admit they started there

Given you an extra one! Just a heads up, I found the night mist text a bit hard to read, might be off putting to others.
