Title: I'm thinking of incentivizing contests. Post by: Rayblon on October 10, 2015, 12:57:51 AM When people participate in them, some amazing content can come out of contests... and it has. However, and I guess I kinda knew this deep down, a pat on the back and a "good job" isn't enough due to how small Mythruna is. Honestly, I'm not too much different in that regard. So I've been thinking...
What if the winner got a copy of a steam game or something? Of course, it would come at the cost of me having to limit contests to once every few months just so the expenses are reasonable(It should be known that I don't plan on skimping on the prizes and you'd likely be seeing things with $20-$30 pricetags). So, what do you guys think? Title: Re: I'm thinking of incentivizing contests.

Personally, I wrote the game and even _I_ wouldn't chuck $20-30 a month away on advertising right now. Title: Re: I'm thinking of incentivizing contests.

Yeah, but you have better places to spend your money. :P Money has never really been an issue for me either way, and even when I do buy a game, it just sits there 95% of the time. That said, you're probably right. The community is pretty tiny right now and even if lots more people decide to participate because they fancy the prizes, there's still no guarantee that I'll get the results that I see in my head. I might just wait until the next major update to kick things off and get people out there showcasing the new features. |
