Welcome to WOOTcomms

Well hello there. Introductions are probably in order. The site is written by Al Gray and Mike Phillips –  we both work in the world of advertising and marketing, and we both love games with a passion. We are continually amazed at the explosion of indie games, the innovation and generally cool things that the industry is doing. But we are also surprised that some of the best indie games that we come across are relatively unknown. Either due to our time spent in the advertising world, or some weird obsession with taking things apart to see how they work, we constantly talk about how our favourite indie titles would have more people playing it if only they done x or y.

Obviously most indie games don’t have a huge budget for development, let alone advertising and marketing, so we hope to be able to bring advice that is not only helpful but also affordable. So that’s essentially our elevator pitch: Advice and insight into marketing indie games on a shoestring budget.

We’ll be looking to continually add to this site, to make it more useful, interesting and relevant for you. So if you have any thoughts, suggestions, or just want to chat, get in touch. We can be found on Twitter and though our Contact page.
