[IGDA_indies] TOW: Distribution Platforms

[Robert Madsen]

I am researching several distribution channels.  The main channel we will be
using for our new game is the IdeaSystem, a development platform and
distribution system by Idea Fabrik, the Idea Fabrik, makers of the Hero
Engine.  We will also be looking at Steam and we have tentative agreements
with some other PC distribution partners in the U.S, Europe, and Africa to
try to target specific area.

I'm launching a Topic of the Week to see if we can keep things hopping on
the mailing list and the new FB page (https://www.facebook.com/IgdaIndies).
I've got the first few weeks covered, but will soon be starting another
thread asking for suggestions.

 

This week's question is:

 

What distribution channels (Steam, Amazon App Store, Kongregate, etc) do you
use for your games and why? If you don't use a distribution platform,
relying instead on download sales through your own website, tell us why!
