    Lightbulb Now More Expensive Than Ever!

    As detailed on the Puppygames blog, Titan Attacks and Ultratron are now even better value for money at twice their original price! Got to feed those hungry mouths somehow.

    Commission's still 40% so that's $8 a pop for anyone else who would like to take up the mantle. Seeing as Titan is the most addictive game ever you'd be a fool not to want to affiliate it! It's a license to download money. Yes, we're looking for more affiliates. Serious ones only mind you. You know who you are. PM or use our enquiry form for more details.

    Titan Attacks was on "Attack of the Show" the other day (they were showing the top 3 indie games of the year on gametunnel)

    Well what do we do to become affiliates? I was just searching your games on Plimus catalogue to send you aff request and couldn't find them.

    I'm wondering why there are so many "show links" for Titan attack and Ultratron on BMTMICRO Catalogue. Are there all the same ?


    Congrats

    It's a bit of an anachronism... the way I've got it set up each affiliate has a separate product code.

    As a matter of interest, I'm with BMT and can see your games and so could affilaite right now, but you ask for people to contact you so I'm confused. Can I just affilaite with any game on BMT (like yours) or is it "polite" to ask the author first or what? Thanks.

    Not just polite but wise Y'see, if you just put up one of my games on your site and plonk the Buy Now! button on your page and expect people to buy the game from there you'd be rather seriously short-changing yourself. My games, when they nag, open the user's web browser on my shop page, y'see, and if they click Buy Now! they'll be paying me all the money and you won't see a bean.

    In order to get around this without the randomness and uncertainty of cookies, I give each affiliate a customised build that puts an individual product ID in the URL and that ensures the Buy Now! buttons credit the appropriate affiliate.

    There is a method to my madness.

    Got it, thanks for the explanation. I may be keen to affiliate your games in the near future. If my business meets your requirements (+ I have plans to grow it very soon) then please PM or Email me :-)

    On a happy note: doubling the price initially stopped sales dead but I came to work this morning to find 5 juicy sales in my inbox. $100 instead of $50. Hurrah!

    Well personally, I'd have to admit that I wouldn't have bought the game for 20 bucks. On the other hand, if you're making more money now that's good.

    And you can also start "special sales" now - like selling it for 14.99 for a month or allow special discounts. Like giving a well known site a code valid for a wekk or so that allows visitors of their site to get the game for only 14.99. Should generate a lot of hits and maybe a couple of sales.
