Well yeah, having kind of an issue here when publishing my game
I wish that players only have the option of "Connect to an online game" , but without the "Download URL" filled in, the game won't appear in the search engine or whatsoever.
I see many games have it like this, but they DO appear, where do i input it?
And also, does anybody have a good (free) site to upload the .zip file? Because the current one I have now is only for 30 days :S

Try ripway or geocities (I'd recommend geocities.) If you have a host server that is always up, you provide the link to it in the connect to a online game area.

I don't have a host server that is always up o.o
What if I just want my game to stand there, while me and my team (when I find one :|) work on the game, so the game can be advertised for a while? | |

Then keep hosting it yoruself or let them download on their own. 1. I'm on router 2. I don't want them to run away with a pre pre alpha where you can see a few tests in the maps and for the rest grass I just want the game to stand in the hub/search pages/whatever without them being able to download it from "Download and run your own game" Some servers have this away damnit, how?:S | |
Just set world.hub in your game.
world.hub = "Mysame.Harvest Moon Online"
Chances are it isn't showing up in searches because it's hub entry has never been linked to it when it was hosted. | |
