Why should I do that apart from some commenter demanding that I do so? If I put in thousands of hours of work and a few thousand dollars into a project, why should I get zero compensation for that and not even be allowed to indirectly benefit?
- mrkramer 2y agoYou said >Github release if you don't have Steam: https://github.com/joe-gibbs/fall-of-an-empire-release https://github.com/joe-gibbs/fall-of-an-empire-release What Github release? You again redirects us to Steam? The description you've put in Github description could've been shared on Steam. You only used Hacker News to self-promote, that's why you shared. Nothing particularly wrong with that but your post came as you meant to open source the game on Github. And like other person said Barotrauma open sourced its game and still sold over 1 million copies....it's all about licensing, nobody will steal your work.
- joegibbs 2y agoThe release is right here: https://github.com/joe-gibbs/fall-of-an-empire-release/releases/tag/1.0 https://github.com/joe-gibbs/fall-of-an-empire-release/relea..., on the right hand side of the linked page. I said release because it's a release and not the source. I used Github because I have a Github account, and the alternative is either paying for bandwidth yourself or putting it on something like Mediafire that people don't like.
- mrkramer 2y agoI genuinely thought Github release means release of source code, because when I see Github I see open source. My bad. You can also release the demo on itch.io and Game Jolt for extra exposure.
