OTHER
I wanted to offer this opportunity to 3dgs users first since this is a great community and has give so much over the years.

Please read the developers FAQ on our website before posting questions on the forum.


SCREENSHOTS
Please see the showcase for screen shots of the demos.



DOWNLOADS
We have put together a set of demonstrations using A6 Commercial that show what the games must include. Please note that these are only demonstrations and will not be published as Scenarioz. They are there to give you an idea of what is required.

this is an interesting concept.

The presentation still needs some work, especially the application where you can select and play the scenarioz. I thing that it should rather be a window based application, not full screen! A bit more like "steam" from valve..
those rolling screen changes are soo 1999 . Also those scenarioz need a good description!

the shooter tutorial is way too low quality, sorry. It might really scare away possible customers. The jumping part was really frustrating.

other than that, I'm already thinking about what mini scenario i might add. Hope that you can assemble a solid base of applications with the help of the community!

Thanks for the feedback.

The Interface is open to change. There are a few ideas we have to try including a 3D interface. Making the application window based is no problem too.

I completely agree that the FPS Tutorial is too low quality. I created it to give developers an idea of what could be made. I will stick to the business of selling games rather than making them:)

Perhaps we could create a competition to make the best training for First Person Scenarioz or even for all of them. We would have to agree on a universal control for each scenarioz type.

The prize could be free scenarioz for life and perhaps a cash prize. Plus the fact that the winners work would be distributed in every scenarioz compilation.

again, thanks for the positive feedback.

We have received many responses regarding the Scenarioz Project.

Please read this message before e-mailing.

Sorry but your sharing calculation is unacceptable.
The more items per compilation the less for the developer.

How do you plan on driving traffic to the site?

Thank you

mercuryus - thanks for your feedback.

The items per compilation will be fixed. All scenarioz except Mini Scenarioz will have 12-15 games per compilation. The more compilations means higher price but perhaps 12 should be the maximum.

Mini Scenarioz can go upto 20. (25 is too many considering the file size as well)

We are not talking about full games. They can be levels of a game, demos, small scenes etc. Games will also be available to buy as single scenarioz which will give developers a 50% commission.

I am willing to compromise since I want everyone to get a fair deal. What would you suggest as an acceptable sharing calculation for the compilations?


PigHunter

The Marketing campaign begins in the new year. This will depend on the number and quality of games. We will be advertising on gaming magazines, newsgroups and indie sites. Not to mention all the social networks and media newtworking sites. There is investment in this area which is of course vital for any chance of success.

since you are not funding project development in any way (you only distribute it), %50 share is low. (talking about single scenarioz.) If the concept was proven and it was sure that the scenarioz will sell good that could be fair but, since project is just begining you can't just get same share as the developers since the developer made the much of the work.

just my 2 cents, no offense.

Quadraxas

No offense taken. This discussion is required in order to make this succeed.

I can understand your point that the developer will be doing a lot of the work. However, I will be selling the games which will take a considerable amount of effort in the current market. This will also invlove website management, ecommerce investment, and completion of the user interface. There is also the FPS training to consider. I'm sure there will be more incentive if I post a competition with a cash prize.


The games won't sell obviously unless they are good quality. We will never know if it is proven until we try it. If people are willing to make small games which of are high quality I would be willing to take less and give more back. It has to be worth while for everyone, especially the user.


Please feel free to post your comments.

i told about the project to some of my friends, they think it would be good if you advertise it right.

you may also publish libraries to developers such as fps library (since you want to make controls same that feels like you are trying to make player feel familiar with diffrent scenarioz). i.e. fps libarary could include movement and weapon system. then every one could use these as base, so most fps scenarioz will have the same feel.

regards.
