Topic: Kongregate / How do you get sponsored by Kongregate

^ feel free to name some. I will look at their scores, gameplays and how good they are.
Even before knowing which games you talk about I can GUARANTEE on of the following: the game is mediocre at best, case closed OR the game is indeed good and was NOT overlooked. Again, feel free to name the games.

I would normally be happy to simply post it but I am worried that it would just sucked in the abyss of the ‘new games’ page and maybe get played by 300 people if I’m lucky. I think game really deserves and could get a lot more plays with some proper recognition.

Don’t worry, I have been on gamesites like Kong, NG, armorgames etc for a good 9 years now. IF your game is good that won’t happen. You don’t need to “promote” a good game. A good game will always stand out and will get plenty of plays. There are so many people who play games, like me I browse through the new games and 95+% is just trash, so that’s 2 mins wasted and low score of course. But every now and then I find a gem a game that is really good. but not once have i seen a really good game that was “overlooked”. It always ends up having great score and many comments, plays, etc.

If you fear your game will land in the abyss it means you are not confident of your game. It doesn’t happen to good games, period. If your games is only mediocre or let alone bad sure… it will go away but that’s the whole point of it. we want good games, and those WILL get recognition.

So, post it and let us play. if it sux or is mediocre well…. try harder next time. if its good it will get a lot of recognition by the very nature.

Topic: Kongregate / This is starting to piss me off

I just loaded up both games to see, both games are big but only about 70% of my screenheight. What’s your resolution? they seem to be roughly ~850px in height. Also, you can zoom out if you find them too big (ctrl-) or make your browser fullscreen (f11).

I am fluent in Swedish and German. I am pretty good in French and Mandarin but it’s not perfectly fluent.

Four days left! Time to start taking the screenshots; only the screenshots in thread will be counted. I doubt all of you want dubesor taking the victory for being the only one to post a screenshot.

Mhhh… so wasn’t the contest supposed to have ended 1.5 weeks ago? You guys have removed the first post and the deadlines etc.
Would be kind of unfair if you cancelled since I have put extremely high number of work into this contest… not my fault no one really contributed >.<

that account is level 5…. just make a new one.

Topic: Kongregate / Suggestion - Adult Games

Personally no, but I wouldn’t mind if they did. I see nothing wrong with it.
Look at Newgrounds they are the best example imho how to handle 18+ content. You never accidentally stumble upon it, and it is very nicely filtered yet still accessible for anyone who actively wants it.

I’ve played some adult games and, obviously most are crappy anime porn but I was also suprised to find some really good ones that I ACTUALLY enjoyed for the gameplay. Games like franks adventure series or some of those relationship sims, oh an recently Sakyubasu.

So, I would be fine either way. Doesn’t fit the image of Kong though imo, it’s not really known to be a mature site.

I love The Walking Dead for stuff like this :D

Topic: Kongregate / Vertigo: Gravity Llama (Impossible Badge Discussion)

the game is really buggy the ingame statistics list total deaths: 0 when I died way over 100 times. the deathcount stats in the highscore tab are totally different. despite finishing the game I never really knew how to get medals or what the D S B etc meant. Also number of flips shows a 4 in world 1 for me,which can’t be possible because I usually need like 8. And I have no idea how to get the trophy in the center but it wasn’t necessary for the impossible.

Topic: Kongregate / Help on trying to spend Kreds...

I also had that issue several times on Firefox (always latest version) while being connected/green plug.
The next day it worked fine. Seems to be a general problem with the kong-server having hiccups every now and then.

Topic: Kongregate / [Contest] Mother Of All Puzzles

Oh, totally forgot about this.
Anyhow I have quit playing a while ago, every further level gets more and more frustrating.
Even when I solve a level, I don’t have the feeling “Ahh, so that makes sense”, but rather “Umm, ok? Lucky guess from me”.

Overall the puzzles are far too crypted and flat out illogical to enjoy solving.

here is my latest progress from some time ago to put me on the leaderboards:

and yep I know who that guy is and the company etc ;) so don’t bother helping I don’t care anymore.

Topic: Kongregate / [NOMINATIONS]Kongregate Game of the year 2012

Uff I cant even remember all the games I played in 2012 on Kong. There were some truly awsome ones. Any way I can filter by date which games I have rated highly?

Topic: General Gaming / The Walking Dead - Short Version

Appreciated :)

Topic: Kongregate / Criticizing.....

constructive critisism is good. any decent developer wants it. that way he can see where his major flaws were and easily fix them or implement/avoid them in his next game. it helps out tremendously. much more than asskissers who rate “5/5 PERFECT”.

pay close attention to the wording.

Topic: Kongregate / why does Kong HATE NINTENDO??

Normally they should have it. Since they are owned by Gamestop which supports and sells Wii products. I guess their webcoder was just being a lazy ass and didn’t implement it yet.

If you haven’t played the game don’t watch, Spoilers!

There is no rule against looking up things on Google in this contest. :P

…. do you really think I would have managed 11 levels if I didn’t know how to google or check for stuff like pagetitles, imagenames and source codes??
I have the EXACT translation but it is incorrect. And please don’t “help” me any further it is just annoying when you point out something so blatantly obvious that everyone who passed level 1 would know.

Topic: Kongregate / [Contest] Mother Of All Puzzles

Level 12 now, almost got it but still half is gibberish. I’ll stop for now because games like this really frustrate me .

Topic: Kongregate / [Contest] Mother Of All Puzzles

Suck at rating? I rate every game I play. Sorry for not simply abusing the system and unfairly rating games that I didn’t play like most of you seem to do.
And yea I definitely suck at gaming. That’s why I have a third of the impossibles including 4 out of the 5 least awarded impossibles on the entire site.
Clearly that is the reason ◔_◔
