Yes, we've been thinking a lot about Kickstarter and will most likely try to use it for our next major project. </p> http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/topic/ohiogamedevcom-promoting-game-dev-in-ohio-a-personal-story-from-steve#post-5657 Mon, 15 Oct 2012 14:49:58 +0000 darkbluemullet 5657@http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/ <p>That's a great thing you are doing there Steve. My initial goal is to gain employment in the game Dev industry and my second goal is to emigrate from the U.K. to either Australia or U.S./Canada so our paths may just cross some hopefully! On a side note, have you guys ever considered using KickStarter?? </p> http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/topic/ohiogamedevcom-promoting-game-dev-in-ohio-a-personal-story-from-steve#post-5656 Mon, 15 Oct 2012 13:47:27 +0000 connah14 5656@http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/ <p>Thumbs up Steve !!</p> <p>i really like this , i think its fabulous that you set up a site to encourage developers to grow and stay in Ohio , coming from the UK i like the idea and think people should do more of it , the entrepreneurship of people is a great thing to see :) </p> http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/topic/ohiogamedevcom-promoting-game-dev-in-ohio-a-personal-story-from-steve#post-5655 Mon, 15 Oct 2012 10:28:29 +0000 SteveCastro 5655@http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/ <p>I recently started <a href="http://www.ohiogamedev.com/" rel="nofollow">OhioGameDev.com</a>, a site encouraging game developers to come, stay and grow in Ohio, and promoting those who are already making games here. I'll talk more about the site further down the post, but first a personal story...</p> <p>I was born in Ohio and have lived here most of my life. In my senior year of high school I was offered a scholarship at DeVry University in Columbus, Ohio, and was also accepted to DigiPen, Nintendo's school of game development in Washington State. Would I stay in Ohio or dive completely into my gaming dreams, leaving my family and friends a fourth of a world away? It was an important decision that would shape the rest of my life.</p> <p>Ultimately I chose to stay in Ohio and go to DeVry, and have lived in the Columbus area ever since. I studied general programming, but kept developing games on the side. After a stint working with business software, I returned to my dream of making games and began looking for a partner in order to go full-time, which eventually became ClickShake Games in January, 2010.</p> <p>Ohio is a nice state, with much lower cost of living and lots of education opportunities, as well as a decent tax incentive for developing games here. You could move to another state and work for a company already making games, or you can stay local, take some risks to push games as an artform while making the games you want to make, and help the economy by starting up a new small business. </p> <p>For these reasons I've setup <a href="http://www.ohiogamedev.com/" rel="nofollow">OhioGameDev.com</a> to put the spotlight on game dev activity in the Buckeye State and to grow this business in my state. Soon I plan to flesh out the site with a better design and more resources. I'm also working with some other devs locally to put on a game dev conference possibly in 2013, so keep an eye out for that on that site.</p> <p>Please respond to this post or use the Contact Us link at the bottom of the page to let me know if you have any comments or questions about this. Let me know if you or someone you know is doing something game dev related in Ohio that should be linked on the site. </p> http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/topic/refer-a-friend-and-get-a-free-copy-of-ballads-of-reemus#post-5121 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 01:23:31 +0000 Green123 5121@http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/ <p><a href="http://www.clickshakegames.com/reemus/ballads/when-the-bed-bites.php?ref=EPHSjQstqNhHgqAQ7cFqy946magkHS" rel="nofollow">http://www.clickshakegames.com/reemus/ballads/when-the-bed-bites.php?ref=EPHSjQstqNhHgqAQ7cFqy946magkHS</a> </p> http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/topic/refer-a-friend-and-get-a-free-copy-of-ballads-of-reemus#post-5119 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 09:15:30 +0000 Rouge 5119@http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/ <p>And mine just incase luck happens to favour me:</p> <p><a href="http://www.clickshakegames.com/reemus/ballads/when-the-bed-bites.php?ref=B3YNkTLdmeWAsz6ALYP9kQAZGjD1rQ" rel="nofollow">http://www.clickshakegames.com/reemus/ballads/when-the-bed-bites.php?ref=B3YNkTLdmeWAsz6ALYP9kQAZGjD1rQ</a> </p> http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/topic/refer-a-friend-and-get-a-free-copy-of-ballads-of-reemus#post-5114 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 11:13:55 +0000 Alfex 5114@http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/ <p>My referral link:<br /> <a href="http://www.clickshakegames.com/reemus/ballads/when-the-bed-bites.php?ref=18WHCk2Wh1xW8s962YXCymNzTgMGxs" rel="nofollow">http://www.clickshakegames.com/reemus/ballads/when-the-bed-bites.php?ref=18WHCk2Wh1xW8s962YXCymNzTgMGxs</a> </p> http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/topic/refer-a-friend-and-get-a-free-copy-of-ballads-of-reemus#post-5111 Sun, 12 Feb 2012 13:17:58 +0000 Earl 5111@http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/ <p>Hey, I know it's a bit (well, okay, <em>very</em>) late after-the-fact, but is there any chance in getting the referral page changed so it can somehow acknowledge it?</p> <p>For example, out of curiosity, I followed someone's link, and then I entered an incorrect version of one, and there was no difference between the two pages.<br /> -----<br /> BTW. I know it's too far early to know that you <em>will</em> do the referral program for the next time, but is it an option?

I played it on Kongregate and checked out the ClickShake profile and saw there was a website and I had to sign up! I played the demo of Ballads and I am trying to send out referral links. Thanks for all the free games, I hope I can get this paid one (and others to follow) too!</p> <p>Keep up the great work! </p> http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/topic/refer-a-friend-and-get-a-free-copy-of-ballads-of-reemus#post-5062 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 19:20:17 +0000 SteveCastro 5062@http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/ <p>We're considering putting the demo on Kongregate. </p> http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/topic/refer-a-friend-and-get-a-free-copy-of-ballads-of-reemus#post-5059 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 10:02:09 +0000 darkbluemullet 5059@http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/ <p>The demo on Kongregate. Now that is a good idea. Be wary though, there have been a few of them lately and although the average score might be ok, the majority of comments have been along the lines of "If you just put up the full game, you will this, that and the other. Greedy, etc". People want everything free on sites like that but it may still be worth a go!?? </p> http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/topic/refer-a-friend-and-get-a-free-copy-of-ballads-of-reemus#post-5058 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 06:50:42 +0000 makr3la 5058@http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/ <p>She's got it!

My friend sent me her referral link and I bought Ballads of Reemus, but she didn't get her copy. Is there any way to get it for her? Thanks and regards!</p> <p>/e: Also small off topic, but maybe you can try to put Ballads of Reemus demo at Kongregate? It's a great commercial for fantastic game! :) </p> http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/topic/refer-a-friend-and-get-a-free-copy-of-ballads-of-reemus#post-5036 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 13:10:26 +0000 JayZiebarth 5036@http://www.clickshakegames.com/forum/ <p>you guys would probably have more success using the referral code on other sites. Try to get someone who's never heard of Reemus to try and buy the game.
