INDIE GAME PR BLACKSMITH

Welcome to the Sparks Forge!

I’m Yohann, a PR and marketing specialist who has been forging campaigns in the indie game scene for over 8 years. With more than 50 games supported, from early access launches to full releases, I’ve worked closely with studios around the world to tell their stories, spark visibility for their game, and build connections between developers, journalist, content creators and players.

Just like any « blacksmith », I believe in expertise, experience, and passion. Each game is one of a kind — an indie gem— and I treat every project as a unique piece.

Let’s make your game glow.
