It's been suggested I should do an AMA, like Amok & Ivan used to do. I thought "sure, why not", so here we are!

As the title says, feel free to ask anything, including (or especially) non-game related stuff.

Ready.... go!

I'm not sure what you're asking... the HTML5 map/scenario editor has been available since Amok/Ivan's time, long before me.

Hi, I appreciate what you've done for this game, but I have a few concerns. I'm mostly concerned about the way your administration has treated minorities. The smallest minority on Earth is the individual, and those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities. By nature, man should be free to express himself. As a man of unpopular opinion, I really value this ancient tradition. Will your administration respect all types of expression, and faciltate an environment where people like me can engage with others in meaningful dialogue? In particular, will you allow Unleashed to speak his mind? Like myself, he's a man of unpopular opinion, and I'd appreciate if your administration would go out on a limb and listen to what he has to say, even if it is unpopular.

Thank you.

What's the plans or Ideas for advertising? On the site and off?


In general the things I'm focusing on are:

1) Paid ads -- We've been testing facebook ads, and banner ads on various other sites over the past year. From these tests I've been making changes to try and improve our conversion rate, and to make the ad spend somewhat more justifiable.

For example there is now a completely separate user sign up process for people who click our ads. Basically you click our ad, it takes you to a special landing page where you pick a username, and then immediately you're taken into the tutorial game. This has improved our conversion rate significantly, but still it could be better. That's why we're currently working on revamping the tutorial itself. We need to make the game seem less overwhelming right off the bat, and make things more appealing for new users to stay around.

2) Email marketing -- this will be starting up soon. We have a huge database of users that we aren't tapping into yet, and it will cost basically nothing to send some emails and try to get some old and/or inactive users back. Just a few days ago I purged over 200k obvious spam accounts from our database, and I hope to start sending emails to the cleaned up list in the next week or two.

3) Influencer marketing -- I don't want to reveal too much yet but I'm working on a deal which I hope will bring a lot of traffic. (It will also cost a lot of money...)

4) This is somewhat later down the road, but once our mobile version launches, that will open up a whole new avenue for people to find out about us.

Why not use RewriteRule at Htaccess file instead of using urls with .php?


.htaccess files are specific to Apache, and our website doesn't run on Apache

Anyway we certainly could do "pretty URL" rewrites, but it's not a high priority. (Unless Superhero, our resident SEO guru, tells me to do so...)
