Game Studio BTC

Would a game studio accepting btc as a payment option influence your decision to buy their games? Would you be willing to spend more in BTC then you would in your local currency?

I dunno, but I am a Game Studio that accept BTC Cheesy

But I only got a single sale so far (someone bought the first lesson of my course on how to make games, for 0.1 BTC)

I see you offer to translate to portugesse for bitcoin. Are you a native speaker?

Yes, I am from Brazil.

And I translate since I was a little kid...

When I was 10, I dreamed of being a awesome cool haxxorz and figured that a cool way to do that was translate roms (because it involved disassembling, hexadecimal editing, whatnot). My english was crap back then, so I had to keep a huge english-portuguese dictionary nearby... But it was fun Cheesy

I do not translate roms as hobby anymore (I do not have time... it is a very time consuming process), but I translate stuff

Localization is awesome. Specially when done right (almost all software I use, I get in english, because the translators are always clueless about what the author intended and write some crap translations)

Our site currently suck. Sad

I need a webdesigner.

But it is right now (the part that works) paddlewars.agfgames.com

I think I've read about that on indiegames.com or the gamedev stackexchange. cool! ^_^

would it effect how likely you were to buy a game though?

Oh...

There are a guy that hired my studio to make a trailer for his game. I accepted only if he in exchange accepted BTC for his game Cheesy

Here:

Buy the game, and prove to the guy that accepting BTC was good idea. I am sure that this would make more games get available with BTC!

I don't have many BTC at the moment to buy his game but plan to accept btc for payment once I finish a game that we are going to charge for. (our first game will be free)

Dragon's Tale is pretty awesome.
Ive made .3 (FREE!) BTC
wohoo!
Not much I know, but it is fun to gamble with bitcoins.

I hope to see more games come out implementing BTC features. Would be neat!

Sorry but if it's a shitty game, your sales are going to suck no matter what. If it's a good game then you will get sales.

Actually i would be interested in that lesson.
What language is it in? What IDE, etc ...
Since i can't PM yet, can you answer in this topic?

Thanks in advance

If the games are good, sure why not?

I would be more motivated more to buy a game if it were sold in BTC if it were a game I was interested in.
