So, I've Finished My Game ... Now What?
Hello,
I have finished one of my PC/Mac games, fully tested and working fine. What do I do now? Bearing in mind that I would like to sell my game to a targeted audience.
Where do I publish (recommendations) ...
How do I publish
How does the money situation work? (as in transfer/payment)
And so on ...
Should I make a demo version, or what? I would like to hear what you guys do, really, and the best way of doing it.
Thanks All!

Make a website
Make a PayPal account
Buy some advertising space on game-like websites
Check out some Indie-Game forums, Blogs, and websites in general
-Ask them to review your game if you give to them for free.
Make a trailer for your game.
Have a trail/free version (Optional).
Now you can have it so people use PayPal to pay for what not, then you can email them (Say within three buisness days) and email them a link to download the file, and download ONLY once...
Advertising: Myspace, Facebook, Indie-Game forums blogs and websites, etc.
how do you make it so they can only download once? If they have the link they can download as many times as they want
I don't know exactly what you mean, but if I'm getting it right, you can just give them a download code, and they put that in, or make them go by their emails...
Record an ingame video and publish it on YouTube and remember to tag the video when uploading, so people searching for such games finds it. Also have a website that shows the game as a prof. game. Just 3-5 pages ought to do it.
Show some screenshots, embed the Youtube video(s) and have a visible PAYPAL button somewhere in the layout so people can see the price instantly.
Also think of the Freemium model. $$anonymous$$ake it free to play, but certain stuff/levels/upgrades requires the player to buy a little.
