edited November -1 in Working with GS (Mac)
People is asking for it!
Finally a Game Of The Week Website!

http://gsgame.epiggames.com/

I will handle it for free. (If it goes well will make some money with Banners)
It Will have Game Of The Week fettered in Home Page, You Will see older Game Of The Weeks (GOTW), also we will have featured Games, that will have the best games done by GS (Lets think who will decide this, but it would be co0l for Games published long time ago)
Also will have some interesting news.

Do you guys like it?

Will love help with Images! Like a Logo!

We May Start Next Week.

Cheers.

    I have seen a number of gs related sites start up and go extinct in a very short time. I think this will have a much higher chance of success if it is part of the forum. It will be "messier" but I think it will be more likely to succeed.

    Your site looks nice, so don't take this as a criticism. I've just seen some awesome sites not make it (saladgamers anyone?)
  • VoidedSkyVoidedSky Member Posts: 1,095
    Yeah, I really miss saladgamers... It was soooo polished! Anyway, I'm sure this will be great, and I can't wait for it to start! The site looks great!

    AMAZING!
    960 x 80

    Lets do this all together!

    This would be of the Community! Will last forever :D And If I leave, I Leave another one in charge! It is in an unlimited hosting, so I have no problem at all.
    Lets Do this!

    Maybe we should start a thread with all the games of THIS week, and Make the Pool on Sunday, what you guys think? SO We start already with a GOTW of this week.

    Someone also willing to do a 540 x 240 Images for the Slider Images that Move To Explain What This is about?
    Maybe just a logo and a Text: Unofficial Gamesalad Game of The week, something like that.

    perhaps you could look at signing up for Apple affiliate program and feature games/photics book for sale in a side bar or something ... that way people could help support your effort by clicking your links to purchase. I often buy GSers games when they are announced ... one to support them and two to see what GS is capable of .. in the future I could click your link and at least you would get a bit of the sale?

    Also I always thought there needs to be a page linking to helpful tools (rather than the forums where items get lost over time so perhaps you could include a page with this that way when a new member asks for example if there is a snap to grid .. then anyone can post 'click http://gsgame.epiggames.com/ and the tools button to get xyz'. Would then generate traffic and awareness. In this example you might list the two grid.pngs I made a while ago that people can freely download to use for self-layout.

    Sorry if the latter part is off the mark .. just trying to think of helpful ways to create traffic and interest as these projects seem to die if there is no sustained interest.

    I have seen a lot of sites die like this but I think if we all pull together, we can build a great place for us all to share things and motivate us... Just what this community needs after the recent dip it's taken.

    Absolutely great site and a huge credit to the community! Lets build this up and make it great, it's user run so suggestions will be added and changed without having to go through the GS team and all the legal and company steps.

    Let's build this community back up!
