WISHCAST
Launch telemetry for indie Steam games

Stop launching blind.

Wishcast audits your Steam store page, puts your capsule on the shelf next to the games you compete with, forecasts your wishlists and finds a clear launch window. Built by Revenant Machine, a studio that ships its own games on Steam.

Free for one game during early access. No Steam password, ever.

Shelf scan · live

Players see your game for half a second.

Paste your Steam page. Wishcast reads it live, finds games that share your top tags and puts your capsule among them at the size Steam shows in lists. You also get your page score and the first thing to fix.

Example shelf with fictional games. Scan your page to load the real one.

Store art is loaded live from Steam for comparison and belongs to each game's owner. Adults Only titles aren't supported.

Everything your launch needs, in one dashboard

Store page audit Live

Eleven checks across description, media, discovery and launch readiness, each with the fix written out. Re-run it whenever you change the page.

Shelf scan Live

Your small capsule next to games on your top tags, so you can see whether it holds up at thumbnail size.

Game pulse Live

Reviews, price, tags and languages for each game you track, read from Steam.

Wishlist forecast Live

Upload your Steamworks wishlist CSV and get a launch-day range from your recent pace. The file stays in your browser.

Launch planner Live

Checks dates against Steam's seasonal sales, Next Fest and themed fests, and suggests clear Tuesdays.

Capsule kit Live

One piece of key art becomes every store and library size, with your logo placed and the focal point where you want it.

Press kit Live

A fact sheet, description, asset links and contact block built from your live Steam page, ready to paste or send.

Ownership check Live

Each game is confirmed as yours by studio email or a quick manual check before paid features open.

Coming next

Monday briefing Next

A weekly email with what changed on your page and your rivals' pages, and the one thing to do this week.

Creator outreach Planned

Send review keys to vetted YouTubers and streamers who cover your genre, and track who claimed them and who posted.

Coverage monitor Planned

Finds new videos, curator reviews and articles that mention your game.

Localization check Planned

Flags broken placeholders, overflowing strings and missing keys in your translation files.

Trailer check Planned

Timestamped notes on your first ten seconds, pacing and how much of the trailer is gameplay.

How it works

Set up in five minutes

  1. Add your store page

    Paste your Steam link or app ID. Coming Soon pages work. Wishcast reads the public page the way a shopper sees it.

  2. Fix what the audit finds

    Work down the list, most important first. Re-run after each change to see the score move.

  3. Check the shelf

    See your capsule beside games on your top tags and make sure it's the one people notice.

  4. Plan the launch

    Forecast wishlists from your Steamworks export and pick a date that avoids sales and Next Fest.

Questions

Good to know

Do you need my Steam password or Steamworks access?

No. Wishcast reads your public store page. For the forecast, you export the wishlist CSV from Steamworks yourself and it's read in your browser.

Does it work before my page is public?

It needs a live store page, including Coming Soon pages. The capsule kit and launch planner work without one.

Which games aren't supported?

Adults Only titles. Every other rating, including mature games, is fine.

How accurate is the forecast?

It carries your last 28 days' pace forward with a ±20% range. It doesn't predict Next Fest or launch-week spikes, so treat it as a planning baseline.

Is Wishcast connected to Valve?

No. Wishcast is an independent tool from Revenant Machine.
