similar to the Twitter thread, please put Facebook pages of app devs in here. I'll go first - Headcase Games Facebook Page As noted in the Twitter thread, we are a few days shy of submission for our first app! In the meantime, we promote our brand by doing features like Retrogame of the Day (this feature is posted through on our Facebook page as well.) Show us what you've got, gang! -Ron
Hello fellow iPhone developers! I was going to start a new thread to see how many iPhone game developers have created a Facebook page (not a personal profile) to present their games, but it seems Ron of Headcase Games already started one ;-). While working on our Facebook page I found that beside getting fans, they are a nice feature that we can use to help each other and its the "Add to my Page's Favorites". We could then link each other this way, so if one of us got some visitors who are interested in iPhone games they might also be interested to see more. So why not point them to other fellow developers? In the similar fashion where people discover other people to follow on Twitter. So I was thinking it would be great to compile a list of all the Facebook pages that promote an iPhone game project and become fan of each others and add each other's pages. Ill start the list with ours ;-). It still under construction, we have added some secret profile of our team members and some music from our resident musician ;-). More stuff about our iPhone project will be posted there, hopefully soon! I also hope other people will contribute to that list. Below here ill be adding people iPhone game developers page that I will found or that people post on this thread (unless Ron want to take the jobs of doing it in the first/starting post ;-)). ======= Facebook pages/groups ============= http://www.facebook.com/pages/Quebarium/157395901823 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Headcase-Games/83667964779 http://www.facebook.com/pages/NimbleBit/56737093013 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Little-Red-Sled/69287295599 http://www.facebook.com/iphoneflowergarden http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dapple/49942515977 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Toronto-ON/Streaming-Colour-Studios/29842888118 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Craneballs/155600825759 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Jumboo/109526707827 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Insurgent-Games/123118808275 http://www.facebook.com/pages/London-United-Kingdom/Quantum-Sheep/220180245596 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Austin-TX/Rock-Ridge-Games/78066321879 http://www.facebook.com/CavalcadeGames http://www.facebook.com/thirtyoneapp http://www.facebook.com/pages/Solid-7-Studios/106107219289 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Bounce-Pop-2/142692706149 http://www.facebook.com/pixelstream http://www.facebook.com/leafbound http://www.facebook.com/pages/1112-Le-Jeu/58396124184 http://www.facebook.com/pages/BurnBall/42882173802 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Team-Phobic/47036864164 http://www.facebook.com/pages/metacreature-games/43994307732 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Strange-Flavour-Ltd/20372296306 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Birdsoft/22451980048 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Car-Jack-Streets/53695005545 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Pocket-God/49506746358 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Melbourne-Australia/Firemint/43447214735 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Firemint-Real-Racing/47894899291 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Game-Resort/36812762195 http://facebook.com/brokenthumbsapps http://www.facebook.com/pages/Cheese-Collect/163342649030 http://www.facebook.com/cornholeallstars http://www.facebook.com/pages/Occurro/83331411294 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Air-Hockey-by-Acceleroto/38671853551 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Melbourne-Australia/True-Axis/166891738465 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Doodle-Jump/96408725983 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Press-Start-Studio/189435761816 http://www.facebook.com/fingerarts http://www.facebook.com/pages/ezonecom/183612423936 http://www.facebook.com/pages/99Games/133392446446 http://www.facebook.com/TootleGames http://www.facebook.com/pages/Seaman-Count/82440531886 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Snow-Way-To-Draw/57142793403 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Bristol/Mobile-Pie/177377371366 http://www.facebook.com/Origin8 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Digital-Hero-Games/105571702350 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Bovinedragon/134785941078 http://www.facebook.com/StormAttackGame http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/pages/Sinecure-Industries/183185118695 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Addicus/158040614355 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Get-Set-Games/102808129050 http://www.facebook.com/p1xlgames http://www.facebook.com/pages/mondrian-a-puzzle-game/165102473630 http://www.facebook.com/ActionChess http://www.facebook.com/FunkyVisions http://www.facebook.com/pages/Global-Delight/144690490669 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Kieffer-Bros/125918019785?ref=sgm Underworlds http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=73850134634 99cents http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=48737546545 John Kooistra's Games http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=34199313094 Tootle http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=52611963472 Imangi http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=25073449972 Scramboni http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=33435585835 ============================================== FAQ How do I create a page for my game? Start here http://www.facebook.com/pages/create.php I made my page, didn't publish it - how do I find it? Go to your profile, choose Info, and See All against pages... your unpublished page will be there. Is is safe to become a fan? Becoming a fan of a page doesn't give the owners of the page any information about you other than what is public on Facebook - your name, profile photo and mutual friends. Unless you have made other things public. Applications on the other hand get access to everything - thats why you have to agree before you add them How do I get a vanity URL like http://www.facebook.com/iphoneflowergarden ? You need 25 fans. Then go to http://www.facebook.com/username/ and choose 'set a username for your project'
Acceleroto games Great idea! Here are ours: Air Hockey - http://www.facebook.com/pages/Air-Hockey-by-Acceleroto/38671853551 Occurro! - http://www.facebook.com/pages/Occurro/83331411294
Added a little FAQ about how to use Facebook pages for your games and/or development company. If you know of other Facebook pages from iPhone devs/games that aren't listed there, please let me know and I will add them to the list. Thanks for your collaboration in advance.
im not the dev but this is doodle jump's fan page http://www.facebook.com/pages/Occurro/83331411294#/pages/Doodle-Jump/96408725983?ref=search&sid=1727792478.788833769..1
Well here is Press Start Studio's facebook page (its brand new!) http://www.facebook.com/pages/Press-Start-Studio/189435761816?v=wall
Great idea for a thread! I hope developers continue to add to the list, since it would be great to be able to refer to it. Maybe if becomes popular enough, it will be a "sticky!"
I just made one for Ezone.com: http://www.facebook.com/pages/ezonecom/183612423936 Great idea - thanks for organizing this!
Tootle's Facebook pages Howdy chaps and chapesses! Here are Tootle's Facebook pages for the record. Tootle: http://www.facebook.com/TootleGames Seaman Count: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/pages/Seaman-Count/82440531886?ref=ts Snow Way To Draw: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/pages/Snow-Way-To-Draw/57142793403?ref=ts We also have a group (http://www.facebook.com/TootleGames#/group.php?gid=52611963472&ref=ts) but we don't update that so much anymore as the pages seem to be a lot more flexible content-wise. Enjoy! Dibely
Here's Origin8's page: http://www.facebook.com/Origin8. It's a little quiet at the moment, but we keep the news up to date so it's a good place to hear the latest from us.
Please check out our facebook page. It is a good place stay up to date on the progress of Cowbell Hero. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Digital-Hero-Games/105571702350 Thanks,
Thanks everyone! Ive update the main post with the latest Facebook pages, also a quick reminder to all of you : How do I get a vanity URL like http://www.facebook.com/iphoneflowergarden ? You need 25 fans. Then go to http://www.facebook.com/username/ and choose 'set a username for your project' And I saw several of you that have more than 25 fans and should be able to get the vanity URL. For the rest of us well we can help each other by becoming fans, I know I did I became fan of all the pages I posted in the list .
Thanks for the tip about the vanity domain, would you mind updating your list and modifying Thirty One's link to my new vanity domain, http://www.facebook.com/thirtyoneapp , thanks! I'm a fan by the way
@Lukeca Ok I've update your link and thank for becoming our fan I did too ;-). So now you have a more easy url to spread around instead of the pages/blahblah/129329493.
Storm Attack's Facebook Page Here's Storm Attack's Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/StormAttackGame I post all the news and reviews there, so it's a good place to keep up to date. @Intruder_qqc Thanks so much for the vanity URL info! Makes things a lot easier.
