If you could request something to be added or changed in the next TINS or KrampusHack, what would it be?
Let's just do some free style brainstorming. I'm not promising that I will implement every (or even any) request. But if we could dream for a moment, what would you like to see next? -- |

The last change to the web design is still recent, I suggest leaving it for a while longer. 🌈🌈🌈 🌟 BlackRook WebSite (Only valid from my installer) 🌟 C/C++ 🌟 GNU/Linux 🌟 IceCream/Cornet 🌟 🌈🌈🌈 Rm Beer for Emperor 2021!

This is a real moonshot, but would there be an interest in a steam-like platform for installing and running games? I remember a long time ago Miram made a multi-game runner kinda thing in Allegro 4. My biggest thing, I would suggest a few changes to the webside, mostly improving the nav layout, header, and login flow which has always confused me a bit. Would you like some help with that?

How do you feel about steam gift cards? Mark Oates said: login flow I should make it redirect after login, that would probably help right? Quote: Would you like some help with that? Testing and feedback for sure! If you mean actual code contributions, not yet. I'm moving the site to a new open source code base, but the transition is still underway and I'm not in a hurry. -- |

Steam handling money with cards? It looks like mine with my own virtual currencies and virtual cards. 🌈🌈🌈 🌟 BlackRook WebSite (Only valid from my installer) 🌟 C/C++ 🌟 GNU/Linux 🌟 IceCream/Cornet 🌟 🌈🌈🌈 Rm Beer for Emperor 2021!

That's funny, I was just looking up how to publish game on steam. Apparently it's $100 USD to publish a game, but they will refund that fee if you make more than $1,000 USD gross in sales. You sign a bunch of paperwork, including tax forms. They take 30% commission for each sale. You can't publish your game until 30 days after paying the $100 fee. You have to have a website. Before you go live, there's a 1-5 day review of the game (so it's not malicious or damaging to computers) and review your site. -- |

1) Apparently it's $100 USD to publish a game, but they will refund that fee if you make more than $1,000 USD gross in sales. 2) You sign a bunch of paperwork, including tax forms. 3) They take 30% commission for each sale. 4) You can't publish your game until 30 days after paying the $100 fee. 5) You have to have a website. 6) Once you have your website, discard all of the above and sell your game from your site. End of problem. 🌈🌈🌈 🌟 BlackRook WebSite (Only valid from my installer) 🌟 C/C++ 🌟 GNU/Linux 🌟 IceCream/Cornet 🌟 🌈🌈🌈 Rm Beer for Emperor 2021! Rm Beer for Ruinous Slave Drained 2022!

Well, you're going to have to do marketing. With Steam, you at least have channel to reach customers and some cross-promotional options. Ideally, you're on every channel you can be on to reach customers (Instagram, Twitter, Steam, Play Store, your site, YouTube promo vids...) If you limit yourself to just your website, you're out in the cold on your own and you have few options. -- |

For what it's worth, I'm on popular networks like reddit, youtube, twitter, and yet you're so lonely that the Forever Alone meme doesn't do you enough honor. That's because the popularity that each of the sites can have, especially steam, gog, unity and itch.io, are all a big lie. The only one that makes it popular is you, who publishes on those garbage sites and then runs around on other networks to say that you are on steam, twitter or other sites. The most effective means is to distribute pamphlets in the street of Spain, but I can not do that, so I'm running on other networks to make my sites known. The result is the same, if you're in steam, gog, or unity don't change the result, you only lost much more by the stupid exigence of the site (I have seen many sites like this, even related to other topics, that abuse with that purpose). 🌈🌈🌈 🌟 BlackRook WebSite (Only valid from my installer) 🌟 C/C++ 🌟 GNU/Linux 🌟 IceCream/Cornet 🌟 🌈🌈🌈 Rm Beer for Emperor 2021!

I like the 100% game jam shirts. Are you open to more designs or products? I tried to design a shirt for allegro once.... Of course everyone whined and complained they didn't like it. But no one else came up with anything. :/ My Website! | EAGLE GUI Library Demos | My Deviant Art Gallery | Spiraloid Preview | A4 FontMaker | Skyline!
