On Developers Submitting Games to TouchArcade

[arn]

Hi All,

The standard procedure for developers to submit their games to TouchArcade is simply emailing tips@toucharcade.com

We probably won't get back to you right away if at all, and I apologize for that. It's just that we're busy and we try to look at all games, but sometimes the queue is put on hold when things are busy (like major other announcements) since we can only review so many apps in a given time.

- Screenshots and videos are always helpful.
- We don't accept gift certificates for the games at this time.
- We don't accept ad-hoc distribution for games that are in the app store, but may for pre-release titles for review purposes.

Thanks,
arn

Hey Arn,

The tips@toucharcade.com address has had issues the two times I've tried to use it. Once several weeks ago, and once last week. Both times I used it, a few hours later, I'd get this sent back:

Warning: could not send message for past 4 hours
Connection refused by blakespot.com

I tried emailing with my business address, and from my personal address, each of which use entirely different mail servers. No idea if you ever got any of the messages. If you'd like the full text of the failure message, let me know. Thanks.

yeah, the bouncing should be corrected. It was a problem with one of the email addresses that were in he distribution list. I should have gotten them all despite the bounces.

Good to know. Thanks, arn.

arn, I just want to say a big thank you for providing touchArcade.com, reviewing games and generally doing a whole heap to help devs spread the word about their games.

I think we all really appreciate all the hard work you're putting in.

I completely agree - I have watched toucharcade since before the store was here and it has been invaluable and a fantastic example of this type of site, great focus, impartial, good community, we find it very useful and I for one am looking forward to participating more in the future. Can I suggest you make this thread or at least the first post a sticky?

hah.... I was debugging it this afternoon. Last time, I'm pretty sure it's fixed. Please try again and let me know if not.

Great, seems I didn't get a bounce this time. I'll send in my tip now!

Thanks!

May already know this, but if not it looks like the email may be bouncing again.
