Heya Indie Devs! How much is the risk of releasing on a similar date with GTA VI?

I've been wondering since GTA VI is going to be released, and this kind of thing would be an interesting and rare case study.

Like is there any track record of how much risk an Indie game would get if they released a game with a date similar to GTA VI.

If it's in the same genre or budget I get it. But like what if it's in a different genre or niche, and a different target market?? And also maybe for example is in the incremental or Idle genre?

Indie devs! What's your strategy to get a good enough engagement on X / YT Shorts / Threads?

I've been trying out posting on YouTube in shorts format for content related to my game, and it looks like it's steadily climbing up with each post. Other than that, our accounts on Twitter and Threads been struggling to get even one engagement, maybe it's because I was still using the short format content for those platforms.
