So we put quite some effort into designing an image which conveys the major aspects of the game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A catchy slogan &#8211; &#8222;Meet your Friends, Trade, Build your City&#8220; &#8211; covers the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bellingo.de\/blog\/devblog-the-idea-behind-network-traders\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">unique selling points<\/a> of Network Traders. In order to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bellingo.de\/blog\/devblog-the-merchants-in-network-traders\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">exchange merchants<\/a> with your fellow traders, you need to be physically in their vicinity. Hence <em>meet your friends<\/em> is meant quite literally. And this is what happens in the foreground of our feature graphic. Two players send their merchants from their device to the other one&#8217;s. The background gives you a hint on how your city will look like after some successful trading. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bellingo.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/AppIcon_512x512.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bellingo.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/AppIcon_512x512.png\" alt=\"App Icon of Network Traders\" class=\"wp-image-773\" width=\"128\" height=\"128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bellingo.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/AppIcon_512x512.png 512w, https:\/\/www.bellingo.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/AppIcon_512x512-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.bellingo.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/AppIcon_512x512-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 128px) 100vw, 128px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the design of our feature graphic ties in nicely with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bellingo.de\/blog\/devblog-our-app-icon-is-here\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">our app icon<\/a>. This dynamic young fellow, emerging from your smartphone to make a fortune out there in the wide world, has already made an appearance there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I just read a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/botherer\/status\/1559141891492429824?s=20&amp;t=KbVnf8nZtEznQYZ9V_7sOw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">tweet by John Walker<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/buried-treasure.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Buried Treasure<\/a>, exhorting indie devs to spend time on their banner images. How about ours? Does this feature graphic resonate with you? I sincerely hope so, but if not, take some time and tell me why! I would appreciate it if you left a comment below, and let&#8217;s discuss your point of view for other indie devs to follow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are getting closer to the first public test release of Network Traders.
