Please review our pre-game ad API!

[Stephan]

Hello,

I would like to know how you like the design and work from the BannerFlux pre-game ad container?

The API is coded from Alfred (gubugnet) and his brother David, the php part was done from my tech team.

It’s very important for me to know if game developers are happy with the design and how the container shows the banners as this is a part from the presentation of your games.

We added a very easy to see skip button to minimize accidental clicks as this would give the advertisers a high bounce rate and we like to avoid to make the advertisers unhappy to.

Every comment is welcome!
Here you can view the ad: here

Thank you
Stephan

Nice work, it's great to see decent alternatives to Mochi like this. As a publisher I can be happy not pissing off my visitors using games with your ads. Cool minimum payout of $8 for devs too.

I'm happy you like the API

I also reply to your message thru e-mail, let me know if you need more help

Thanks
Stephan

Good job done Stephan!
The only thing it lacks is ActionScript 2 support thought. Regarding FlashGameLicence stats: 38 % of games made in 2009 was done in AS2.

Your API should also support some type of in-game ads, for example mochi have "click-away ads" for ingame usage (usefull for game over screen, main menu etc.)

Also make sure to announce your ad API on major flash developer forums to get noticed, and to get further feedback.
Check these: Mochimedia forum, Flash game license forum, Flashkit forum.
Also advertising on those sites would help alot to get the initial notoriety.

Regards,
Marek

Hi Marek,

If more people request the API in AS2 CS3, I will ask my coder to code one, but I belief its time to move to AS3 and not to make games with AS2 anymore.

We are not finish with all the new stats etc for the API. We just test some new mod where you can submit your game name and you get the ID for the API to track all the stats needed, should be out tomorrow. After all is set, I will make some promo around other forums etc.

I will not offer now the "click away ad" as I like to finish first all other on the to do list, after I have some new stuff comming out

Regards
Stephan
