So the game that my team and I have been working on, the zombie survival game that I showcased on here a month or so back, was just accepted by Desura, and now they're promoting the game on the front page. Overnight we've seen over 100 accounts created and brand new players flooding in, and our game has gotten top ratings.
This could be a really good resource for the BYOND developers that need that extra bit of exposure.
If you want to go and check it out, the free version of our game is right here:

To celebrate, we're giving away PS4's and Xbox One's later on in the month, you can figure out how to enter on our facebook page

 I hate the game its a good game but i hate how you give the people that get the game for free to damn rights it's like telling them download this game and have no rights to play with your friends and no rights to get near the scoreboard. In my opinion i would take off the option to only give the premium players online joining and hosting and also the leaderboard and make them pay for more maps and more guns because how people get attracted to things is by seeing their friends have it online with them. Trust me if you make the game free a lot of the famous youtubers and companys will knock busting down your door. It's like what BYOND does with your membership. Nice avatar the next day the person that told you nice avatar buys BYOND membership. Nice Game! Btw disappointed campagin is only for premium | |
Hey, after getting feedback from the players, we've enabled online mode now for free accounts, and you can now play the zombie survival mode online with your friends! Thanks for giving our game a chance, and let us know feedback if there's anything we can do to improve =)

I don't own that domain...
Actually you can buy it if you really want. http://whois.net/whois/freewebsitehoster.com | |
I can only imagine how much better the marketing campaign and longevity of the fan base could be if you had a better web presence.

@Jp: If needed, I can get you a basic web hosting plan for free and show a bit on how to make a website. It will make it look much more presentable. Especially since nobody really.. uses webs.com anymore? Do they? ._.

Lol freewebs good memories. | |
My first website was from webs. And this was many many many many many many years ago. I used it for 3 days. Hated it. I wanted to do what "I" wanted to do. It wouldn't let me use HTML or anything like that. Was kind of annoying and restrictive.
| |
wtf do you mean Xirre? Webs.com had an "HTML Only" account level that I have used for years. It let me upload my own HTML and CSS pages, it just added an annoying "Hosted from Webs" bar at the bottom of my screen. AFAIK The option went away in like 2012, but they have had that option no later than 2009.
| |
I had my website in 2005. I don't remember there being an HTML option. Although, I don't remember much.
| |
You had to go through account settings and change your type. I know it's gone now though.
| |
Looks interesting but I think I'll stick with Dead Frontier. Good luck.
| |
I haven't played the game, so I can't tell.
Is this made with BYOND? Hell, it kinda looks awesome from what I've seen on the Screenshots! | |
