Jayenkai's mini-review of GameJolt

1. The community
GameJolt has a forum, but I've not yet looked into it. I really haven't got the time to spend getting to know another bloomin' community. I rarely post to Monkey forum, or RetroRemakes, or CWF, or TIGSource, or even "that" OUYA forum. I simply can't start reading yet another bloomin' forum!!
The only "community" I'm currently getting from there is when others directly interact with me.
I currently have three friends, a couple of shouts, and a comment or two.

They seem friendly enough.

2. The "showcase"
The site lets you upload anything up to about a gigabyte. God only knows why you'd need such space, as most of my games top out at about 5 Mb, but whatever..
They let you upload a windows version, but also a HTML edition, or flash, or whatever else you're working in.
If your game contains music, you can additionally upload a soundtrack which can be played/downloaded alongside your game.
There's an awful lot of page hopping, as each little upload is on a different bloody page, but once you're done it all seems to work fairly smoothly, and your HTML game runs nice and easily without all the slow loading that hosting on this server does!!!

Rule number one, however.. FREEWARE ONLY...

3. The Adverts
The site is kinda flooded with ads, but it pays the bills, and if you've got a HTML/flash edition, they also share revenue with you. Having joined up just a few days ago, I've already racked up a whopping $0.12, just from about 50-odd plays of my games. Sure it's not an epic amount, but it's probably more than I've ever racked up from my own site's adverts!!!

Can't fault it, it's a damn good indie site.

...something's bound to go horribly wrong, soon.. It always does!!!
