TYG is a LITE version of PYG.

TYG will be more suited to sharing the latest cool GIF or short teaser vids for your game; Maybe even drop a world premiere 😎

For those that WANT to share BUT maybe don't want to share too much. OR.. maybe aren't quite ready to share more yet 👀

With recent changes, there is REAL change. Noticeable change. So it's time to double down, not dip out.

TYG offers video games an additional THREE opportunities alongside PYG per year to both share AND discover video games, of all levels, from all over the world. 🥰

All I can say is thank god..

1. #PitchYaGame has been running for five years
2. People already know about, and plan, for PYG
3. we have a website
4. we put out email reminders

Because if we rely on platform reach alone (across all platforms; it would seem), we'd be screwed. 💀
