Chunsoft was hinting at dispair girls weren't they?
If this is the case I think it's actually worth it's own thread.
It would be extremely convenient for the game we are making.
Hopefully it's open api / SDK, that can be used for non-steam versions too.

That's very good.
Still waiting for VR Gloves.
Very nice.

Never got around to picking up that one for the Vita so I hope it hits steam eventually.
They need to release 999 already though for those of us who want to start from the first game.
Here's a site that offers 53,000 of them.
I just want DS button prompts without the devs having to support them.

About this, I guess it basically means they had some good sales on Steam to consider taking it seriously.

Still hoping we're gonna hear something soon on that 999 port or Ultra Despair Girl tease.

Yeah it is very likely to be Ultra Despair Girls which I wouldn't mind, but what would be cool is if it comes with Steam Workshop support so players can make their own maps or puzzles.
Things can only start going uphill for them over time.

I'm completely unfamiliar with CSGO.
Can anyone tell me which are considered vanilla and which are uncommon keys?

Shit. I completely forgot to buy Oxenfree.

Amazon is the only online bookstore selling Mobi for most titles AFAIK. At least, the underlying format is still Mobi, it's like AZK3 now.

You know the latest hit man game is pretty bad.
No Kane and lynch references or Easter eggs anywhere.

I remember BG&E had a problem where the framerate would absolutely tank when you were out in the water on your boat. There was some fix for it but you'll have to look it up if that's where your performance is messed up.
The sooner the world forgets about the garbage that was Kane & Lynch the better it'll be for humanity.

Live stream of Steam Dev Marketing and Selling Game panel: https://www.periscope.tv/w/1yNGaAovVQrGj
Probably not too interesting to most of you guys, but very interesting to me as someone who does deal with the store side of games. Talking about presenting your game and some general tips for Steam depots and different types of marketing stuff for Steam.

You know, you're more selfish about games than I am, that's pretty hard to accomplish.

Hopefully someone does, probably many went to marketing since marketing on Steam is something many developers want some tips on. I know if I was there I'd choose to go to this panel rather than the controller one, but obviously some people are at the controller event.

Curious question for you guys based off of the Steam Dev Marketing promo:
How long do you guys normally spend on a Steam Store page? Do you watch trailers, watch the first 10 seconds, click through? Right now they're talking about the importance of being interesting with your trailers in less than 10 seconds, many without audio in their discovery queue. Curious what you guys think?

That sounds about right. I'll give up on a steam page quick if just the banner isn't catchy

i have trailers disabled and will just look at screenshots. if i dont have a feel for what gameplay will be like then ill check out trailers.

I was thinking about my own behaviors, but I don't think what I do is specifically is the popular method. But they were talking how many see parts of trailers with audio off, how most people may spend less than 10 seconds on a store page if it doesn't immediately capture their interest, and the importance of capsule art, to mind what it looks like on mobile and small screens, how a trailer seems without audio, what the game conveys in 10 seconds, and such topics, which I do think is all interesting and I kind of had thought about, but probably less seriously than I should of. They mention since it's simple to implement on Steam, many developers don't think enough about it, which I think is true.
I certainly sometimes do this too with some games, depending on where I am when searching the store page.

Now talking about how to handle patch notes and Steam Key handling.
I actually never watch the trailers on the store pages.
Usually my attention nowadays goes at first to the user review average, then i click through the screenshot (usually all, but sometimes there are too many, or i immediately notice i'm not interested), then my eyes go to the price and the additional price info of enhanced steam, then i happen to take a look at the amount of people in my friendslist that already own the game and how long they've played it and then i tend to take a last look at the all-time peak stats.

I almost always skip trailers unless I can't figure out the game from the screenshots/store description. Sometimes, I'll get curious about how a game looks in motion, but for some reason the trailer being autoplay with microscopic video controls has trained me to click the first screenshot on a page and never look back. This is a little annoying to work around when a store page has 5-8 trailers!
Interestingly enough, I almost always watch trailers on greenlight pages. Youtube's spacious controls make all the difference, though I wish they would also not auto-play.

If you deactivate the autoplay checkbox in the videoplayer, the steamstore should auto default you to the screenshots in the future

More Danganronpa!
Yeah, I think that's pretty accurate. When I'm clicking through my Discovery Queue during sales your game has a few seconds to catch my attention in some way. If your trailer starts with a few seconds of logos I'm never going to see your game in motion unless either the banner, screenshots or description catches my interest. And yes, I veeeeeery rarely turn on the audio for trailers, if ever.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Cool.
It's smart. Get devs to implement controller support via this API and you've tricked them into giving you Steam Controller support.

I've done this a few times before, and it ends up resetting every once in a while. Not sure why, since it will randomly change even though I remain logged in, so it isn't like all of my session data is expiring?
Still, Valve's video player solution needs to be redesigned a bit. I can't imagine how frustrating it is to access any of the functions of their player on a screen with higher DPI.
Cool.
I have to wonder how (bad) will this work out with DS4Windows users...
