Selling your content on GarageGames.com
by Derek Bronson · in Jobs · 12/04/2007 (3:59 pm) · 14 replies
Hello all,
Just wanted to introduce myself. I am the 3rd party content manager at GarageGames. I handle all 3rd party content packs from the first email pitch all the way to being live on the site. We have multiple contracts that offer great royalty rates and allow developers to maintain ownership of their IP. I'm currently creating a process and hopefully a page on the site that will help streamline the submission process and make it clear to everyone what steps are involved in getting their projects up for sale in our store. Any comments or suggestions on how people would like the process to go are greatly appreciated.
Also, as always I'm looking for great 3rd party content. Anything from art to code to sound or even stuff that doesn't directly apply to Torque but makes game development easier and more accessible. Feel free to contact me at Derekb at GarageGames.com

I like it. If you go to use it make sure you use the community edition V0.02, the 1.5.2 is not supported.

It's my understanding that GG have been working with Prairie Games for some time. If you search for MMOWorkshop and look at Prairie Games, you will see that it is the tech behind Minions of Mirth and available for free to licensees of TGE/AFX. It's very sweet tech!

That address isn't the Prarie Games one... its interesting in the fact that it has the GG Logo and Bioware's logo. Not sure if its a legit thing or something in the works, or what.

EDIT:
And here I was thinking that I had posted it! It's fixed now, though. I changed it in Edward's post to reflect the actual site.

Oops. You're right. I'll change that in my post. I had pointed to org because of Josh's open-source enthusiasm.EDIT:

The .org one is pretty interesting too :) Guess we will need to wait to find out, always something neat hiding in a closet!

Um why did you change it from .org to .com, i was asking about the www.mmoworkshop.org i am well aware of the .com site. but that wasnt my question. You guys are always talking about open development.

Fixed. Sorry about that. My time at GameFAQs as a mod and email admin for our webmail server tainted me with the horror of harvesting sites for usernames and passwords.

My mistake. I have been getting a lot of e-mail asking whether the .com is a legit way to get started in MMO development with Torque.EDIT:

The .org site has nothing to do with GarageGames. I spoke with a couple people and no one has any clue what it is. Right now it looks like a potential scam so I would avoid it.

This also has nothing to do with Prairie Games. We have mmoworkshop.com and mmoworkshop.net
