Google Play algorithm update screws Indie devs
Background: In the Google Play app when you view an app&#x2F;game you&#x27;ll see &#x27;similar apps&#x27; listed. Indie devs get about 80% of their app installs from these organic installs.<p>Since 20th June Google has removed actually similar apps and replaced them with what seem to be big title games with large download numbers (50 million plus) with questionable similarity.<p>Hoping this is some sort of glitch and not a sign of things to come.
