Hello everyone,

When making a suggestion please follow the following rules and guide.

Rules
  1. Follow the Board Rules.

Guide
  1. Be detailed as possible.
  2. Use proper grammar and write readable.
  3. Be organized.
  4. Add some images to spice up your post. Such as headers, banners and ect.
  5. If you don't have any screenshots, try to post some concept art. Images will always attract people to read more about your post.
  6. Don't be discouraged if you don't get any replies! Over time improve your post by adding more content and people WILL start to reply.
  7. Your game might be criticized or the features you love might be downplayed but remember, this is your game, your hobby. If you start changing your game to others' taste then you might begin to loose interest in your own game!
  8. Constructive criticism is good. When criticizing, do not harass or insult. "This sucks!" is not constructive criticism but "I believe this feature needs to be reconsidered because ...." is great.

Title

Tag-Line (if it has any)

Introduce your game here.

Screenshots
Upload your screenshots to any media upload website you can link to. Make sure to use spoilers to keep your post from harder to navigate.

Story
Write the story of your game here. Don't reveal too much but not too little. It's important to find the balance and might take a few tries. Remember, its better to reveal less at first and keep on revealing more and more until you hit that balance. As an alternative to the story, you can write about the setting of the game or the first-look plot (be careful not to write about twists or spoilers!).

Character Info (Optional)
Some information about the first few characters your players will encounter. Write some about the protagonists and antagonists.

Features and Gameplay
Talk about some unique features your game has and how the gameplay might flow. Be excited about what you write, don't be dull! If your not excited about your own game's features then you can't expect others to be.

Conclusion
Write the conclusion for your topic here such as extra comments or website ect.


And here is a simple example of how the template can be used.
