Two sales in one day!
PlayScout sold two more 3-search packs today. One dev found me from a demo post on Bluesky and X, and the other was the first to use the Next Fest half-off code. That's three paying devs now. During Next Fest the deal shows up right in the unlock box, so you don't have to hunt for it. Search got tighter too: better matches across more genres, a Not a fit button to clear out creators who don't suit you, and more places to find a creator's email. I also added a little reminder that creators are real people, so your first message should sound like one.
ComposerScout had its best signup day yet: 18 new accounts, and we're up to 85. Welcome in, everyone! When a creator pitches a studio now, the studio gets an email right away, and creators can tick Price negotiable if they don't want to put a number up front. The inbox got filters, search and unread first, the roles page explains how to post or reach out in a couple of lines, and itch.io, Discord and Steam buttons wear their own logos now. I also sent out a second member survey, so if you're on ComposerScout, I'd love to hear from you.
Next up: more Next Fest outreach, and building whatever the survey says next.
