Clicks For Devs - November

[no_skill]

Thanks for still puttin me in EvilDragon. I don't have the feeling that I deserve something right now, but I hope to contribute bigger things for the gp2x

I have a suggestion though: Could you add a list who already won clicks for devs so far?
The problem is: there are about three/four/five great developers who deserve the clicks, but I don't know which already won thus not knowing whom I should vote for.

 

[Alex.]

Voted for racemaniac to support the little group of Fenix devvers

​

Ditto. Scorched GP is remarkable, I hope to see many more games of the same quality being done by Racemaniac!

 

[EvilDragon]

shouldn't quiest be in the list?

​

I second that. If he was, I would have voted for him for sure TMP is fantastic and deserves recognition!

​

Well, he's been on the list the last three months, so give other devs a chance, too.
He will return, don't worry

​

Well, devs who already won are not up for voting yet.
And if you just check my sig, you can see who won already

I Vote for DJWillis for his GCC4 toolchain for windows. It may sound boring but this is going to be the thing most dev'rs are going to be using to code for the 2x so its pretty imprtant.

EvilDragon, could you please put me on the list next month, i know I won't win, I would just like to see how many people vote for me as not many people responded to my release of my VNS game and I'd like to know that people actually played it. I'm still working on it, but school started so I just don't get much time, but I promise that I will at least finish scene 4 and release it before calling it quits.

Thanks,

Nobody will vote for you if you call it quits.

​

i'm not calling it quits yet. I don't plan to ever quit developing, but i might decide to go for something that is a little more fun to make. I will call it quits when I'm no longer having any fun developing it.

 

[EvilDragon]

Sure, I can put you on the list.
But an easy feedback (not just for you, but for ALL devs here) is the "How many times downloaded" in the gp32x File Archive

​

It would be, except in trying to update it I accidentally deleted it and had to add it as a totally new file, so the download count is at 3 . And I also had the download available on my website, but now its been down for quite some time and I can't contact the hosting service so i'm not sure what happened.....

 

[unlucky]

I choose Woogal for his Quake2 port

​

Quake2 ? ??!?

 

[Quiest]

For the gp2x maybe?

​

i see.
sorry.

 

[Quiest]

Hey ED, did you ever think about making these Clicks For Devs votes visible as news on the front page? would be better cause more people would vote then, I think.

​

I don't think that would be a good idea, as Google is pretty upset about things like that.

 

[Quiest]

About giving the money earned from their adds to developers? How can they be?
Oh, I meant put news to the polls like this in the news, you maybe got me wrong.

 

[Julius]

Anything that points to this very openly on the front page could jeopardize the entire thing, as it is basicly encouraging 'fake' clicks, which Google really doesn't like at all.

 

[EvilDragon]

Well, Google may not like it, but I don't break any rules.

I clearly state in my signature, that you should NOT click because I tell you, but only because you see an interesting banner.

Nowhere on the gp32x.de page is a text that says "click to support devs" or anything else.

I'm just telling the people I give my ad-made money away to other guys - and there's nothing in Google's rules telling me that I'm not allowed to do that

 

[Esn]

I voted for Tuskenraider, but it was a close call between him and Woogal. I think that you should add "YAFL" to Woogal's list, since that's by far the program that I use the most frequently by him.

Also, ED, isn't there any way that you could block certain google adds? The only thing that they ever put on your website are boats. Why would anybody coming from a handheld gaming site voluntarily click on a boat site? I know it's because of the "GP32", but seriously, doesn't Google have some kind of system for dealing with innappropriate adds?

 

[reaper79]

Yeah, google has a provision for that. It's main purpose being that Adsense doesn't display a competitors ads on your site.

Of course you could, "cheat", and put the ad on a page with "different" content in order to encourage google to use different "keywords". There by generating more profit, but you didn't here that from me, and I don't recommend it at all.

I played it, but one thing annoyed me: Abolish deaths. It's so annoying whnbe you get ot hte end of an episode then die, So do a lucasarts and avoid deaths.
