Hi Alex, i just love devs from indie games that really care about talking with "fans"
A little tip - what about trying to get to Desura first before steam? They support Alphafunding model of sale (
http://www.desura.com/groups/desura/news/alphafunding-for-indie-games), they have really nice client, and u should really see a grow in sales tbh
its not like i adore Desura over Steam (i have like 10 games on Desura vs 200 games on Steam
) but imo its easier to get there in first place + alphafunding is core feature of that platform to support unknown small games to public like Project Zomboid or rlly nice King Arthurs Gold. Plus its really easy to publish games there
