Just slap some code together, make sure it kinda works, pay the Steam Direct fee, and boom, you're a game developer on Steam. Seriously though, focus on creating something unique and enjoyable. Good luck!

To make a Steam game, you'll first need some game development skills. Pick a game engine like Unity or Unreal Engine - they're popular and have lots of tutorials. Develop your game, keeping Steam's requirements in mind. Once you're happy with it, sign up for a Steamworks developer account. You'll need to pay a fee to submit your game for review. Follow the guidelines for submission, and once approved, you can publish and sell your game on Steam. Bonus tip: Engage with the community for feedback and improvements!

Developing a game for Steam isn't just about coding. You also need to market your game effectively. Make sure to create an attractive store page with compelling screenshots and descriptions.
