Got a feature on game jolt!
Which is an awesome freeware portal that shares ad revenue with developers. (probably the only one actually)
Also I spent last week pestering Bytejacker to have my game on Free Indie Rapid Fire. They didn’t put it up for some reason (probably the higher than normal system requirements) which is cool, but Joe Larson gave me some useful feedback which is all good and they put my video in the episode ><
It’s embarrasing but kinda cool at the same time. At least I know they watched it and Jon spent a few hours editing my ugly mug into the episode.
So I still love them 
Honestly though, Bytejacker is a fantastic show, and it’s been quite inspirational watching their viewer base grow over the last year and a bit. I found it about 13 months ago when they had < 100 viewers. I remember thinking that these bastards work damn hard in a really competitive market (youtube) and hoping that one day it would pay off for them. Well they’re getting there, they got sponsored a few months ago by Revision 3 and their viewer base is in the 1000’s now. So cheers to them!
Speaking of freeware games; I found a couple last week that were pretty god damn awesome.
I can’t be fucked getting the links, but look up “Infectionator!” and “Battle Jump” if you’re bored.
Hi Mate,
Downloaded your game, Binky put me onto it. Awesome stuff. I like the sombre/ clinical nature of the whole affair. Gauranteed to keep me busy when I should be working. Hope you do well.
Thanks Scott! Glad you enjoyed it. It used to have this crazy 4th-wall breaking existentialist plot where you gradually learn that the game is in fact a simulator for a real combat drone killing people in some far off distant land. But I took it out because people didn’t get it, and it wasn’t very well fleshed out.
The whole sombre tone of the thing is a left over from that though.
