This page quotes r/gameDevPromotion's rules as ThreadFox read them on 2026-10-07. The quoted text is the community's; the verdict above is our reading of it. Conditions often decide whether a post fits (a required thread, flair, posting day, account age or karma), and r/gameDevPromotion's current rules on Reddit always win over this page.

For an assistant that also writes and posts within each community's rules, the ThreadFox kit is $49 once.

What its rules say about promotion
Relevant Content
All posts must be relevant to game promotion.
Blatant Self-Promotion - Have at it.
That's the point of this subreddit.
All 6 rules of r/gameDevPromotion
- Be Respectful
Maintain a respectful and welcoming atmosphere. Disagreements are a natural part of discussion and do not equate to disrespect—engage constructively and focus on ideas, not individuals. Personal attacks, harassment, hate speech, and offensive language are strictly prohibited. - Relevant Content
All posts must be relevant to game promotion. - Blatant Self-Promotion - Have at it.
That's the point of this subreddit. - No Soliciting Employment or Collaboration
This is not the place to find others to work or collaborate with, whether paid or for free. For job opportunities, check out r/inat or r/gamedevclassifieds. You can also explore employment channels on our Discord server. - Use Reports Responsibly
Please don’t misuse the report feature. While some posts may seem only loosely related to game development, they can still fall within the community’s scope. False reports hinder meaningful discussions and make moderation more difficult and time-consuming. Use reports for clear rule violations, not personal disagreements. - English Only Communication
Posts and comments must be in English to ensure clarity for the community. Quoting text in other languages is fine if accompanied by an English translation or sufficient explanation. Common non-English phrases like c'est la vie or carpe diem are acceptable and do not violate this rule.
What the written rules don't show
- Unpublished minimums. Many communities remove posts from new or low-karma accounts through AutoModerator settings that are not on the rules page, often before a moderator sees them.
- Reddit's own filters. Reddit's site-wide spam filters can remove posts from accounts that mostly share links to their own site, in any community.
- The community's norms. Many communities see themselves as peers, not an audience: post where you already take part, and make the post worth reading without the link.
