((You’ll find that most of the games that are sold on the big sites are actually made by small time developers, thought there are a few that do stand out like Divo games and reflexive) I happen to know that the following games were developed by a husband and wife team: Darkside, Arklight, Scavenger, Circulate, Pyracubes, Oddbox, Cubology, System Mania, Grid Lines, Word Juice and a few others, most of which are amazingly original ideas or variations on a theme with original elements. Or use the money to live on while they come up with new and interesting ideas. Many of these small time developers plough most of their profit back into buying better tools to develop better games. Part of the reason I think this way is that I think it important that the developer gets as much money from the sales of his or her games as possible. I'm a firm believer in buying my games if I can afford to though I appreciate that not everyone can afford to buy any arcade games as they are probably an unnecessary luxury especially in today’s worsening economic climate (which is probably another reason for their increase ‘I bet’). Personally I think ad’ supported games are annoying to the point that I'll delete them as soon as I've decided whether I'm going to buy the game or not. I’ll try and rewrite some of what I deleted as I think it is an important point, though my short term memory is appalling, so it will probably come over totally different to what I first wrote. Maybe they are just trying to gain people back through GameHouse.ĭarn it I accidentally deleted my post above when all I meant to do was correct a spelling mistake. I know they are part of RealArcade, and as most of you know, lots of people dropped their membership this year and went elsewhere.due to poor game quality and horrible customer service. I don't know if they're trying to compete with GAOTD or not. I was just hoping we'd see something more recent, like we used to see here. Or people who have just gotten into playing casual games, these will be great to try out.

And they are ad supported, so no different than the others.įor many of you these free daily games will be most welcome if you've been unable to buy games for financial or other reasons (I've been able to maintain one game site mbrship). WooHoo!, this is going to be awesome! However since that first game most of what is offered are games that have been out for a long time, and in several cases available free at Mostfun or other free sites.

Well, their first giveaway was the brand new Mortimer Beckett and the Time Paradox. I was very excited, thinking a new or newer game would be chosen each day and it would be like GAOTD's games (ad free). (Then again there wouldn’t be any profit in freeware would there :(īecause I get the Gamehouse Newsletter I knew about the changes to their site and the 'Free' game a day promotion right off. Maybe if things did get really bad the game giveaway team could open the games giveaway to up and coming developers or even the better freeware that’s available. This world really is starting to look like Blade Runner, lol. I think if the project was to fail it would be a great pity because I much prefer checking out my games without the annoying ads.

I do wonder whether the giveaway project sparked all of this off though because I really cannot remember any software houses giving away games prior to its inception. If the practice becomes too prevalent I do believe we wont be seeing as many original or cleverly constructed games as we have in the past, but then maybe the advertisers are paying a lot of money to get into our PC's?. I would much rather pay for my games than use these games though I will be downloading some either to see if they are worth buying or those that the kids like that I know will only be played a few times then discarded when the novelty wears off. As that gives me an oppertunity to see if any new game shave been posted. Personally I can do without the adverts as I feel they are an invasion of privacy, though i don't mind the gametop games which open your browser to Gametops home page. They are all ad’ supported (well most are - with the exception of games from Alawar, but they are few and far between now (supposed to be monthly). It seems that a lot of the big developers and distributors are now giving away free games, but there is one big catch.
