  1. So a few people have asked me about the casino game that I made a post about a couple months ago. The game is called HSR Casino and I have a new trailer out that you guys can watch.

    I am releasing the game in probably about 1 week, I am currently beta testing the game along with about 7 other people and we want to make sure we get rid of as many glitches as possible. :D

    The last game I made, The Smuggler, I uploaded for free and allowed anyone to download and play it. However, not even 1 person donated and I couldn't afford to keep the website up and running and I lost about $100. So, unfortunately, and this might piss a few people off lol, I have to charge $5 for this game. Shipping is free if you choose cyber shipping. This is just the only way I can afford to keep the website up. Anyways you can go to www.hsrcasino.com for details and I also made some forums. Once again sorry if some people are pissed about this but I just can't afford to to pay for a domain name, a hosting server, and bandwidth when nobody donates


    So, whatcha guys think of the game? :)
     
  2. Looks tight, but what is your purpose behind making the game, are you looking to make money?
     
  3. Nah I just like making games in VB, this is like my 6th game and definitely the best one so far. The thing is though if i want to share the game with people then i gotta host it on a website, hosting it on a website costs money. All i really wanna do is break even and have people enjoy my game. I don't wanna make any money

    edit: However if like 100,000 people suddenly bought my game though, would I take it? Yes lol
     
  4. Could you not just upload it to rapidshare or something to start with?
     
  5. well the majority of people don't want to install some random exe that they downloaded from rapid share. I remember someone sent me a link to rapid share one time and said oh yea its this sweet game, but even though I knew the person, I just didn't feel comfortable downloading and running whatever.exe on my computer from rapid share, it could be a virus all the way to absolutely nothing. Theres no website with information on it or anything. So i like to have at least a website so people can see its actually a game and that I put my time and work into it.
     
  6. If you want to save money, use a free website to put the information about the game up and download links. Use torrents so the bandwith is coming from your internet and everyone else who downloads it. That means you pay zero for bandwith and about $5 a month for your domain, and zero for your hosting.
     
  7. Lol wish I had of though of that before i locked in for a year of economy hosting, domain name, and whois-database protection :( *bangs head against wall*
     
  8. Well at least ur learned ur lesson:p

    Will u accept cash order for the game?
     
  9. I assume cash order is the same as money order? If so then yea, ill accept paypal, credit cards, debit cards, money orders, or just plain cash thats mailed. If you want an alternative method then lemme know
     
  10. mad_scientist, what are some good free websites for future reference?
