Re: Cryptozookeeper on Steam
It's for sale on Steam:
This is over there, for money, for a few different reasons.
The first is to go through the experience. It was about two months from wanting to get CZK up for when it happened. I found at least 4 show stopping bugs with Valve's process and I needed help from Valve's employees to proceed 3 times. This lets me know that there's not going to be a quick turnaround when I finish Cyberganked.
The second is to get some exposure in what I hope are countries outside America. I have set the price to be really low in Russia and China and others. 8800 people downloaded it according to the Internet Archive, I've set the price to be extremely low in other nations so maybe they give it a try.
The third is because it honestly was a huge time suck to go through the Steam process, so it's for sale for money to account for that. It's $100 to just get started on Steam and then there's whatever you think your time is worth. It took me parts of a week and a half to do everything.

Aren't you concerned that people are going to pirate the game directly from the website you run?

Not really, this isn't about getting money from Americans and Canadians, it's about so much more.

Re: Cryptozookeeper on Steam
Yes! I had to have a Valve employee help me out on a few steps but I'll say this, they are upbeat, positive, helpful and kind.
I'm trying to be the same with this release.

Sorry it took me a couple of days -- you would be amazed at what effort it takes to get a computer, my Steam information, and my credit card all in the same room at the same time!

Talk about sales.

I don't need some one reporting me to Valve. Would you report me? I'd report me.

I don't understand. Why can't you talk about sales? I'm sure I've heard sales numbers on other products.

I'd never report you, I did tag your game for nudity which was a lot of fun, but reporting you would be taking things too far.

Re: Cryptozookeeper on Steam
It appears that I am five dollars away from getting my first payment from Steam. I maybe even would have had it by now if I had activated it for Mac and Linux. I am going to try to do it before the end of the year, but you know how the holidays are if you are in a relationship when it comes to free time.

No tears unless you hit your goal. In that case... who's cuttin' onions?

It's on sale again. I did not put it on sale. I don't know how anything on Steam works.
