Working Draft
Demo Disk is a developer-first indie game showcase for games in progress. Profiles are meant to help people understand what a developer is building, where the project currently stands, and what kind of support could help it move forward.
A strong profile does not need to be polished or commercially ready. It should be clear, honest, and connected to official project information.
What Demo Disk Looks For
Project profiles should include a clear project name, a short description, current development status, developer or team information, official links, support needs, and any useful craft notes or development context.
Demo Disk is especially interested in projects that show thoughtful design, distinctive atmosphere, unusual mechanics, careful worldbuilding, or a clear creative direction.
Official Links Only
Demo Disk does not host executable builds, unknown downloads, ZIP files, APKs, EXEs, installers, or unofficial project files.
Project links should point to official, reputable destinations such as Steam, itch.io, Game Jolt, YouTube, Vimeo, developer websites, press kits, GitHub or GitLab when relevant, or other trusted project pages.
Review And Publication
Submissions may be reviewed before publication. Not every submitted project will be published, and Demo Disk may edit, format, or shorten submitted text for clarity while preserving the intent of the project.
Profiles should not misrepresent the developer, studio, project status, use of assets, or use of tools. If something is experimental, early, AI-assisted, prototype-stage, paused, or seeking support, it is better to say so clearly.
Before Launch
Replace this working draft with final profile guidelines before public launch. The final version should clearly explain submission standards, review expectations, safety rules, link requirements, and how developers can request profile changes or removal.
