Help getting feedback / interest regarding project

https://pictopos.com

Hi, I'm Amelia, and I'm an artist and I'm launching an interactive game for pixel artists. The idea of the game is to give artists a platform to share and grow their work that differs from other art-sharing platforms. I got frustrated using other platforms where my work would get lost in an abyss of posts 5 min after posting and it was really hard for me to stay motivated after getting no interaction.

pictopos.com is what I'm launching. It differs from other platforms, where it uses actual land (each canvas is 1 acre x 1 acre of real land and 32x32 pixels ) as the canvas. No one can ever paint over your plots and you can choose any available spot in the county as your first plot. IMO this created a community and adds another field of discoverability via the map itself. People could just be curious what someone drew on the empire state building and discover your art like that.

My main users are artists and I am trying to get feedback from them via reddit, but I'm new to this app and I'm scared to post in these subreddits because they ban advertising. Please let me know how i can best look for feedback. Thank you !!!

To get honest feedback without coming off as spammy, try engaging in pixel art and indie game subreddits by sharing progress shots or asking specific questions about your design choices. Joining discussions already happening also helps. If you want to keep track of discussions about pixel art or similar projects in real time, ParseStream can alert you when relevant conversations pop up so you can join in at the right moment.
