What are you working on? v16

[iPope]

[QUOTE=NovembrDobby;29303560]well, that's that. At least I only had to wait a couple of weeks:

:eng99:[/QUOTE]

As everyone has said that sucks hard. What I'd recommend is just post the game up fucking everywhere, try and build some interest and hype, I'm sure RPS would give it a look. Maybe if you can get out to average gamers and some of the bigger players in the industry then steam might change their minds.

[r4nk_]

That really sucks NovembrDobby :frown: You really deserve to get that on steam.

It sucks that they don't give you feedback, I wonder what the reason behind that is. Are you allow to finish the game completely and then resubmit or can you only submit once?

[QUOTE=garry;29312772]Never heard of Desura[/QUOTE]

It's kinda like Steam for indy games and mods.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something, so please let me know.

But if NovembrDobby would post his game everywhere, wouldn't that make his game free to download and get? Then meaning that Steam can't add his game to the store because it's already free to get?

He means post videos and demos everywhere to get the publicity

[DrLuke]

Release a demo with 4 levels or so

No idea why its taking so long over the loopback. Profiler just tells me that 96% of the programs execution is spent inside Poll :\.

I think I am using Poll wrong, guess I'll check google for some info on it. It is taking 400-500 ms to poll 500 clients.

Edit:

Fuck me, I thought msdn said Poll would block if you had it wait 0 microseconds. So I was passing it 1.

Better, but those 10ms pings bug me :|.

[QUOTE=Robber;29305932]Apple's actually better than many stores there. When your app gets booted of the Android market they only tell you something useless like that it's against the policy.[/QUOTE]

Maybe, but for your app to get booted from the Android market, you need to have done something really bad.

I remember at one point in Stargate SG-1, there's a montage where Carter and Dr. Bill write some C# code to fix some flaw or virus that has affected the stargates.

I don't see any reason I wouldn't be allowed to try again when I have some more momentum behind it.

Yeah, I think I'm going to have to do some press stuff.

[QUOTE=garry;29312579]Sucks, just try selling it on your website :([/QUOTE]

But my website is awful and and

[QUOTE=NorthernGate;29306960]Reply back and ask why, and ask if you would be able to resubmit it at a later date.[/QUOTE]

I doubt they'd reply with a reason after they said they don't give feedback :/

I reckon it's probably just press I need. I'll work on it some more and send it out everywhere (maybe with a demo), and see what happens. If it gets a good reception I'll try Steam again.

[NorthernGate]

You could always ask Joshhy. I could be wrong, but I don't remember ever seeing him advertise the hell out of Arcadia.

Another idea might be to expand on your demo a bit, I'm not sure what was in it, but you might just want to fill it up more, create clear indicators, in-game, on what the player can do (i.e. what game modes to choose from, options, extras, etc.)

Yea but he had his demo up for quite a while on his site before he submit it to steam, maybe he used that as a way to show them that people are interested in it.
But yes he should ask him

I haven't asked him about what he did for publicity but when we spoke he had no idea why Valve would reject it. I am going to add more stuff and I have some feedback about things and stuff that should change in the set levels (introducing mechanics etc).

That's not individuality. That's "I have blue hair and a top hat so people can look at me and say: 'That guy is so individual' "

Individuality is when people recognize you without blue hair and a top hat.

Not totally programming, but just polishing the graphics for Snabbo. Hopefully don't have to tell you which are the new ones.

Can you record some gameplay when it's done?
