WHERE DOES TALK ABOUT A NEW GAME GO?

Posts

Pages: first 12 next last
Where should we post information about a project we are working on, if we either want comments or to promote it? Game Discussion & Development says "Do not post topics about your game here." but it wouldn't belong in Off-Topic because it's about a game that is in development.

Same question for Artwork. If the art is being done for a game, where's the mid-point?

There is a "what are you working on?" thread that is a stealth promotion/screenshot/bragging stage. If you don't have enough work done to submit a project that's a good place to start.
Gamepages are created for the sole use of promoting your games, keeping people updated. They're easy enough to create. Hover over the "Submissions" link at the very top of the page and click on Submit Game. You need to meet the requirements of the site, which isn't too hard, then wait for one of the staff (usually Magi) to accept the game and then you can add blog posts, pages, screenshots, downloads etc.

I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

Making game pages for games that are only 1% done is so stupid. I mean, Christ, it even has to be approved, right? How is a game supposed to be approved when it's still in the planning stage? How am I supposed to submit 4 screenshots when I don't have any maps yet, and am hundreds of hours away from being ready to make any? What possible criteria could the mods use to determine if it's an acceptable game?

The current state of my in-progress game is totally unplayable, and therefore clearly far worse than any finished game, and some finished games get denied, so I can't think of why my unfinished game would ever be accepted.

The system needs some serious help, or else I don't understand how approval works at all.

Your entire post makes the argument against you. Why should anybody look at your gamepage when you are hundreds of hours away from even being ready to make a map

Exactly! And yet I can't post about it anywhere. I'm not allowed to so much as mention the game anywhere on the site until it's most of the way done. So I can't get advice or input on my combat ideas, or anything.

"Are you working on something, but it's not major enough for a blog post? Do you want some feedback on a boss idea or a menu layout? Just feel like sharing a few nifty skills you came up with? Post here!"

Though it gets allowed because it's a Craze topic, that topic is actually against the rules of the forum.

oh my god, so you DO have a place to post that is "against the rules" but also "allowed" and you refuse to post there?

what are you QQing about other than purposely excluding yourself from that obviously perfectly acceptable thread?
or are you making another trash vx game? I'm getting sick of those -_-

Just make a thread about your combat system in the game theory or whatever its totally legal, just relate it to your game and yes you can post screenies bro.

How was this even a big deal!!?? 0~o

As opposed to the many, many quality games you have posted, the constructive criticism you have offered in the form of reviews, etc

Calling peoples' games trash is pretty uncalled for, given that most real 'trash' is screened out under BCB

Uh, just because the rules aren't enforced 100% of the time doesn't mean they're not bad rules. In fact that almost makes them worse. It means even the site creators know the rules are problematic, so there's no reason not to change them.

I don't have to have a specific personal grievance to be able to notice that the rules can potentially cause problems. If I did have a specific personal grievance, you'd accuse me of only caring about the rule for self-serving purposes. If the rules are potentially problematic, they should be changed, whether anyone is being affected right this second or not.

Pretty sure grievances about site policies go into the Site Feedback forum.

In the meantime feel free to post in the active thread that suits your goals and has not been locked or officially deemed inappropriate

Oh sweet, a bagel.
I think about the 8th post is where everything is wrapped up. The question's been answered, thanks everyone.

heh, no problem buddy. even though i answered your question in the "second" post.

Just make sure to submit a game eventually for maximum exposure of your project. The aforementioned thread moves fast and sometimes you won't get as much feedback as you'd like
