Casual games portals major list updated! Time for fourth edition.

AOL don't work with developers directly, they work only with Oberon, TryMedia and GameHouse.

Game Trust can also distribute your games directly to AOL Games. However - as is the case with any of AOL's direct distribution partners - nobody can guarantee access to AOL Games - they obviously make the call.

For the second quarter of 2006, revenue grew 8% to $89.4 million compared to $82.7 million reported in the second quarter of 2005. For the second quarter of 2006, revenue in the Consumer Products and Services segment was as follows: Games revenue was $21.2 million, a 55% increase over the second quarter of 2005;

If Real is doing these kinds of numbers, what is the likely order of the top 3 portals?

(Quote is from their quarterly report)

Hello everybody. Come to see a new portal www.robingames.com
Your opinion is very important to us. There are not many games but the graphics is realy great as I think. Please feel free to write any opinions.

This topic is about distribution via portals, not about download portals

[mrobert]

Hello,

This might be a bit off topic, but I think it's better to post here.
I am a fellow indie game developer like you, but among other things, we run a portal aswell :
http://www.mobileground.com

You are welcomed to submit your games/software here :
http://www.mobileground.com/page-mgr_submit.html

and news, here :
http://www.mobileground.com/page-mgr_submitnews.html

also, if you PM-me your title's name, I will approve it as a category highlight, to drive you more downloads.

[LittleMonkey]

LittleMonkey.co.nz is relaunching very soon with new games and features. As part of this we are wanting to help independent developers publish their games!

We have a budget for marketing and the technology for online sales to ensure that selling your game is a success.

So if you've completed a fantastic game (or nearly completed one) and you just want to get it out to people so they can buy it contact us on development@littlemonkey.co.nz and we'll see if we can help you.

Add www.egames.com please!

I just set my site up this week http://www.justgamedemos.com. I am offering free hosting for demos under 50MB.

My goal is to try an distinguish this site from all the big portals which seem to have 95% of the same games between them, or are all simply affiliate sites with 80% of the games falling into the same genre.

Being I just set up the site this week, it's a bit naked at the moment. For now, I am only reaching out to authors. I will not be doing any marketing to the general public until I have a large enough library of demos to offer.

That being said, you have nothing to lose by submitting your demo to the site, and once we officially 'go live' it's more exposure for you.

[Alan1984]

And http://www.gamemobile.com/index.aspx should be added
Also there is a free website for game http://www.gamedfree.com/

[Desktop Gaming]

Well, your first site asks:

Want to make 1000 dollars? Click here!

No, I don't. Because its got SCAM written all over it.

From your free game website:

Gamemobile will bring your (sic) a scary Halloween

Who in the hell wants a scary Halloween in December?

Agreed. Mod clean up please?

Hello,

You can use Yoyogames.com if you use GameMaker. Honestly I don't like them too much....

[papillon]

That's hardly a useful portal for distribution if you're looking for money... unless they've implemented their proposed paid-advertising scheme when I wasn't looking?

[Leon]

Hey guys,

I'm working on the The Distribution Channels list, which is just as the title says: A list of Distribution Channels(On the internet).

My goal is to bring together, in one place, all the known Distribution Channels for Indies be them Portals, Affiliate sites or Developer's looking to Affiliate(Or have their games affiliated).

I want for Indies to be able to go to this list and be able to get their game out there(Especially for new Indies who don't know ANY of the major Portal/Affiliate/Dev sites) or find some other Indie's game that they think their audience will enjoy while there is a lull between developing their own games.

I think this can be an extremely handy and useful resource, but I maybe bias.

Thoughts? Anything missing I could add? Looks like a useful list?
