blkcrow Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 You want to advertise a game full of bugs that is also slow as hell? Your server crashes all the time. I have tried your game the only thing i could do is kill NPC's everything else would crash the client. You better fix some bugs before you advertise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zzbrandon Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Yes for you Sacra I tried playing it take up so much memory on my computer also everything is bugged up badly. First you should test it on other computer's because as you know some computers are 64bit and 32bit. Im guessing your game is only designed for 1 of those.

Matt Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 You aren't helping him at all, and most of your comments should be either posted onto his thread in Eclipse Projects, or as a personal message.The way i advertise my game is through online social sites, or by friends. For example, i show my friend my game, and if he likes it he shows his friend. You don't get too many players that way, but i'm not looking for a massive fanbase. As for online social sites, try Facebook, or any forum. Youtube in theory is a good way, but don't expect too many players that way. Hope that helps! In respect towards what the other people have said, advertising for a game so that you can have a community is fine, but its almost pointless if you can't keep that community. If its as buggy as you say, i'd recommend having a fairly stable engine **first** before seriously advertising. If you advertise first, then fix the engine, then advertise again, chances are the players who played before won't be interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
