AI shopper test

An AI is looking at Species: Unknown's capsule, first screenshots and short description the way a Steam shopper would… (up to 30 seconds the first time)

Feedback on my Steam page? Species: Unknown

Hi all! I'm working on Species: Unknown and would love honest feedback on the Steam page before I push more traffic to it.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2747330/

I ran it through a page checker and it scored 81/100 (Very strong). The weakest parts were demo & social proof (55), links & community (65), screenshots (74), so I'd especially like your take on:

1. Would a demo or playtest make you more likely to wishlist?
2. Is there anything you'd want to check (Discord, devlog, socials) before wishlisting?
3. Which of the first 4 screenshots makes you want to click? Which one would you cut?

Full breakdown if you're curious: https://www.steampagechecker.com/report/species-unknown

Thanks, and happy to return the favour on your page!

Check each community's rules first; many have a weekly feedback thread or require a gameplay video.
