Plan for Steve Taylor

by Steve Taylor · 09/09/2004 (4:18 pm) · 9 comments

Well, www.ninjabee.com is finally live. This is our own online game portal, currently a vehicle to sell Outpost Kaloki, but eventually to be used to sell other games from various development groups.

I'm already a little annoyed with Plimus, but I'm new to it, so maybe I just haven't set it up right, or something. Tech support e-mail pending...

[Edit: Plimus is fine. They were manually reviewing my first few orders, since I was a new vendor. I can deal with that, I guess.]

Outpost Kaloki is available on two sites now: BigFishGames.com and NinjaBee.com. Still discussing options with other sites.

HUZZAH! Congratulations. Outpost Kaloki kicks some serious butt - I'm glad you decided to go indie with it!

Thanks, guys!

@Eric: Thanks for buying a copy. I promised you a free one! Oh well, I'll just be sure to buy a copy of your next game. :)

Woops, I forgot to mention - my trouble with Plimus was simply something that I didn't expect and they didn't explicitly mention, but they tell me now that it's a normal part of getting a new vendor set up. It shouldn't be a problem in the future. So, no real complaint about Plimus here...

I had no problem with Plimus to obtain verification and my key. It was fast and easy. One phone call and an email later I was playing the full version.

@Vernon - Thanks! We spent quite a while picking the name and working on the logo. I'm really happy with it.

@Eric - Cool. Why did you have to call them? Did you order over the phone, or did you have to verify something with them? The specific problem I was having was that they apparently manually review the first few orders of new accounts to make sure everything is OK. Theoretically, it's a "first few" thing, and no problem after that.
