[Project] Should we make a Project Page? about grimm-journey HOT 6 CLOSED

A project page definitely sounds like a good idea! Having a single space for everything related to the game is handy for the reasons you mentioned, plus we can link to the Ludum Dare pages through it.

I think the menu headings you suggested are fine - we don't want to bombard people with stuff. Having said that, we could have a news section? Just a simple blog style page where we can post significant updates on the game, or call for additional testers, etc.

I'd also be happy for links to my blog to be put up on the site.

One thing I was thinking is that we could create an email address specifically for the game, rather than adding everyone's personal emails. Thoughts?

I'd also be happy for it to be hosted on your domain for the moment, but in the future it might be nice to have a separate domain (if it's not too expensive/annoying).

Project page is definitely a good idea and I don't mind hosting it on your site. If it takes off, we can register a proper domain name for it to give it a profesh sheen.

Sweet beans guys, I'll continue working on it then, it's pretty much done now. Just need some art assets to make it pretty. I'll host it once it's done and then get you guyses feedback on it. So we can change things.

The text elements on the site are taken from a text file and then built into the page. So any of us can make changes to the site in terms of the text file, after that I'll just have to re-upload it to my host. I'll look into a way to get text from anywhere, that way we can have a little repo for it maybe.

If we end up publishing this on some platform someplace in the future we can host it on a proper domain, I agree. Would be nice to have a shared one.

Could I ask for you guys to post your deets here? Links to blogs. I agree that it would be cool to have a GJ email, how would we go about setting one up? I suppose we could make a gmail account. Maybe I can register a [email protected] instead that we can share. Maybe through my hosting service - I'll look into our options and let you guys know.

Btw, off topic but check out this screenshot comparison: http://www.tinyflamedev.blogspot.co.uk/2015/02/grimm-journey-old-and-new.html :D
