The naming challenge

Indie games need titles that fit a capsule image and are easy to search without colliding with AAA franchises. Overly long titles truncate in store listings; overly vague titles are impossible to remember after a stream.

Who this is for

For solo devs, small studios, and game jam teams naming a Steam, itch.io, or mobile release.
