Today marks the official start of the 2013 SHOW ME THE SALES promotion. Woohoo! Let there be fireworks, cakes and champagne!* This is a different kind of sale than you are used to. It’s not a bundle, and it’s not being run by a portal like steam or gamers gate, or anyone like that. It’s being run entirely by indie developers who sell their games direct. The sales are direct on the developers website, all showmethegames does is just aggregate all the game information and provide discount links for you lucky people. It’s 100% indie. or maybe 200% indie, who really knows these days…
This is a sale where there are no middlemen, or anyone taking a cut of any of the money other than the hard working pixel-bashers and code-wranglers who made the games. You buy whatever games you like, direct from the developers website. Showmethegames.com is a site owned and run by me! out of the goodness and generosity of my ferengi heart. The thing is, not taking a cut of the sales also means the ad budget is zero. Nada. Zip, nothing. So that means we appreciate people tweeting and blogging about the sale all that much more.
So please TWEET or BLOG or post about it, or upvote it somewhere so everybody gets to hear about it. We have games like Defcon, Revenge of the titans, Voxatron, Scoregasm and loads more. Plus even if you don’t like the games on sale, there are lots more on the www.showmethegames website. The sale runs from…
11th may to 18th may.
Tell your friends! Tell your enemies! Tell neutral countries!
*fireworks cake and champagne not included.
