i think what the OP meant was the end of indie game dev for great devs who don't want to do any marketing.

in that case, partnering with a publisher makes a lot of sense. For example, Flight, the iOS game heavily promoted by ArmorGames could have gone it alone, but decided otherwise.

i pasted the entire json library into the field and it just hung. Any tips?

be an intern for the position you like

it's all a question of : did you learn the right thing, or meet the right people.

i did both outside of college, while attending it. So it's not my biggest mistake.

@dalton you need to pimp up the alpha design. That counts too, if you want a larger audience.

traction. if your product isn't inherently viral, you need to be out hustling

when marketing Filepicker to enterprise users, how successful was referrals/friends/valley connections vs coldcalling, percentage-wise?

every large internet corporation catering to mobile communities has a team dedicated to researching, or making social games.

you seem to be adopting Zynga's model of ad spending. Is it sustainable in your case? i.e is the revenue always more than the ad spend

are you good with python + django?

also it has a kickstarter-y feel.

like any other VC, i'm sure they're hoping for a one hit wonder.

going the premium account route might be more feasible. Sell premium tutorials, assets, etc. But you're going to need a huge user base in this case.

quick question : how different is seedrs from angel list?

what happened to the community then? did you redirect them to a different service?

question: how are you guys different from GameSalad, or Construct2?

anyone who creates a dead simple tool to bridge the game dev gap deserves praise

thanks for the clarification

have to admit, that one of the reasons patio11 got Patrick (cofounder of Stripe) to help with customer support is because he's *the patio11

but great customer service is still great, no matter what.

the arguments here will cause innovation.

start from what you know. You'll find that the deeper you get, the more you learn about other areas too

you take your best people wherever you go. Especially when they're your friends.

site back up!

i started just making a simple HTML5 game, and kept going at it. Taught me a bunch abt game development, the industry and ultimately founded a startup

Allocate only 2 hours a day on side projects. Stop immediately once you hit the 2-hour mark.

i run a startup and make games part time.

might be old school, but 1984 and Animal Farm by Orwell

both games aren't loading , i checked the console and it says assets not loading

that's great news! drop me a line about potentially getting your game more exposure. my startup connects html5 devs to large buyers.

any plans to go mobile?

i'm wondering if for the content submitters, it gives them added motivation to get paid as soon as their content gets verified.

verification comes before payout
