Trying to digg DS up

Posted on:April 16 2008

The open beta of Darkness Springs is running quite well. I've dugg the game website now, if you have a digg.com account and like it, please digg it too (see below why):

Digg it here.

I've released a new version of the game today, and there are no major flaws in it anymore, as far as I can tell. Thanks all for testing and bug reporting. The only thing missing now is a test of a massive amount of people playing the game at the same time, a server stress test if you will. And what method for getting a massive amount of users for a short time to the DS website would be better than digg.com? :) I don't think it will hit the front page of digg, but if it does, I'll share my findings and test results here on this blog of course. So Digg it if you like, thanks :)

I on my way to try it out. If you want to get lots of users try making it an application on Facebook. Its really easy and you will get lots of players really quick. And best of all you can include your Google Ads.

@ Niko
If you want i can actually add your game to my facebook application and then link it back to the Darkness Springs Page.

ah, interesting. Facebook is not that popular here, so I don't have any experience with it, but it's a good idea. Sure, if you add it that would be very nice of you.

Try out http://www.rpgwatch.com/show/submitnews - pretty popular RPG site. If they don't want the news, try their forums.
