Promoting on BGA

Post by AaronPacker »

Is it appropriate to promote the sale of a physical version of a BGA game? And if so, where's the most appropriate place to do that?

As an example, if I made "Awesome Sauce: The Game" and put it on BGA, and then I had a sale for the physical version of "Awesome Sauce: The Game", would it be appropriate to tell people about the sale?

I tried digging through the Terms of Use, but unfortunately I couldn't find a clear answer, and I'd like to be sure I don't cross any lines. Thanks!

The developer can put a custom buy button on the top of the game screen and lobby after game end.
add this to gameinfos.inc.php:

Code: Select all

'custom_buy_button' => [
    'url' => 'https://yourpublisher.com',
    'label' => "publishername", // The button will say 'Buy thegamename from publishername'
],
Or the publisher may add a banner there too.
