- vyrotek 16y agoThese are the few that I could find again. I found others but they were blog articles talking about Game Mechanics. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1479966 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1479966 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1482380 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1482380 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1413784 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1413784 The companies I'm aware of that offer these kinds of services are: http://www.IActionable.com http://www.IActionable.com - mine :) Coming Soon http://www.BunchBall.com http://www.BunchBall.com - rajatrocks is the founder and posted on HN years ago http://www.BigDoor.com http://www.BigDoor.com - Just received more funding I believe http://www.BadgeVille.com http://www.BadgeVille.com - Coming Soon http://www.Reputely.com http://www.Reputely.com - Coming Soon
- zackattack 16y agoIs anyone here using any of these? I just signed up for BigDoor. To me, I think Reputely has the best website - I like how they use the phrase "game mechanics" since I already know what they are, and what the value is.

- rajatrocks 16y agoGood list Jason! I'm still here, and have been watching all the newcomers to the space with interest. We've been providing our Nitro game mechanics platform to companies like NBC, Comcast, Hasbro, Warner Bros., etc. since 2007. We also have several startup customers and even a non-profit (Hope Lab - check out the cool work they're doing to combat tween obesity: http://www.uncommonprojects.com/uplog/2010/06/08/introducing-the-gditty/ http://www.uncommonprojects.com/uplog/2010/06/08/introducing...). We've had 3 years of development, customer feedback, and on-the-job learning, so our platform's gotten pretty good, as has our team. And we have some cool stuff planned for the rest of this year and next. Check out our website, and if you're interested in learning more, drop me a line. - rajat
