Hedgewars on Desura?
Sun, 2013-04-14 17:16
If you don't know what desura is:
They have some free games like NeverBall and NeverPutt. I don't see why we shouldn't be in.
Also it will increase Hedgewars' popularity. And we don't need to make any big changes like if we want to be on Steam...
I think it's a nice idea, tell me what you think...

Do not do unto others what you would not want done to yourself
i totally think its a great idea !!
1) more player won't hurt
2) more player, more furn
and, maybe in these player, there will be some that would like to help improve the game, its like recruitement aha
what kind of changes are you talking about ?![Smile Smile](/images/smileys/Smile.png)
Oh no. I mean in a future, if we want to be in Steam we should do a lot of changes. Hehe

i'm sure there is something to see, but what ?
look like a formular to add a game
was that the thing you wanted to show us ?
I want to say that it seems to be easier to add a game of what I thought.

For those that do not have account in Desura. This link ( http://www.desura.com/games/add ) tt is a form to be able to register your game.
Some of the requirements are:
Icon*
500kb max, square image, 64x64 or high recommended
Preview Image*
2000kb max, 1024x768 recommended
The preview image is shown when browsing the games listing.
Profile Header Image (used on ModDB/IndieDB/SlideDB)*
200kb max, 950x150 recommended
This header image is shown at the top of the games profile, where the games name is. An image with no text looks best.
LARGE Profile Header Image (used on Desura)
2000kb max, 940x370 minimum
Please upload an in-game screenshot here with no text as that will look best.
Then I did them for the case of the Hedgewars
Icon (64x64)
Preview Image (1024x768)
Profile Header Image (used on ModDB/IndieDB/SlideDB)* (950x275)
LARGE Profile Header Image (used on Desura) (1023x725)

I think the Nature theme would be best for the images.
yeah nature theme would be coold, i prefer it to the jungle theme, and it is the main theme of hedgewars : mainscreen etc...
and why not your fruit theme
you can be sure fruit theme deserve to be presented ! ![Smile Smile](/images/smileys/Smile.png)
i notice that in your screenshot there is always an explosion, it is probably to show the action but hedgewars is not always like this, in my opinion you don't have to unzoom to see all the map : have a screenshot closer to hogs, a bazooka in the hand, a rocket flying, a mine on the floor, a grave if you want to....
if there are more than one icone to use you could try to have one that show hedgehog with a weapon (bazooka probably).
you made a very good work randy !![Smile Smile](/images/smileys/Smile.png)
Yes, about the explotions you are right. It's always the same explotion. I'll make one with freezer, portal and birdy
Thanks all for suggestions.
