Default More full weekends!!

Come on, we need to encourage demo players to buy the game!!
I only bought this game because of the full-weekend, if there had been no full-weekend I would have ditched this game long ago.

I guess we all have different taste, for me loopy and bomber are the lamest planes in altitude, good thing for me I installed the demo during the full weekend and was able to test all the planes and choose the best one for me.

Maybe just give sundays free or something. I think a lot of people would see what they're missing even though it gives an opportunity for abusing the demo.

Once we get the new website up we'll try some more promotions, both for pulling in new players and convincing demo users to convert. No guarantee on exactly what form those promotions will take but suggestions welcome!

no promo suggestions, but doing some focus testing with the dif planes to see which ones make new players most likely to convert. I think loopy/bomber makes for a pretty good guess (both are easy to get kills with if you suck and are very very different which I think shows off one of the strengths of the game), but it never hurts to bust out some SCIENCE.

Any progress on some awesome gameplay vids to show off the best features?

It would be easy to show each of the planes pwning in TBD / FFA - that's only 5 vids (if I can count properly on a Sunday). At the end you can show the variety of perks (THAT'S 345394059 DIFFERENT SETUPS!!!) and the price and how to buy it.

And possibly a woman in the throes of sexual delirium - it is, after all, good marketing.

No - we definitely need better gameplay video for the main trailer. If anyone has great moments captured on video (usually looking for 2 to 10 second clips) please let me know.

I'm pretty sure you can count, but not multiply.

How's a music video for the new hit single "Do You Wanna Ride my Airplane?"

Haha, I actually put some thought into this a week back and came up with a pretty solid idea for an Altitude trailer.

Goes through each of the planes owning up with their own song playing.

Biplane
Loopy
Bomber
Explodet
Miranda

After Miranda section leave it playing and pop AltitudeGame.com up. "Come play my game."


How about everyone else. What do you guys think the pilots of each plane listens to?

I always saw explodets as liking rap more, just cruising like they're on the highway, you know? And tell me that song isn't perfect for explodets. Metal is for planes who are more intense. Biplane probably. I don't listen to much metal so link to a song that a pilot would like. Gogogo.

Well I listen to metal with all planes so it doesn't necessarily apply to splodet in particular although it is highly recommended!

Actually, you're not always listening to metal, some of the planes are made of canvas and wood.

Snow wins at Mirandamusic.

Come on people, find some music that embodies Bomber or Loopy. Not just music you listen to. What do you think the Bomber or Loopy pilot listens to?

For Bomber: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V92OBNsQgxU
Ride of Valkyries
The beginning part. Might be cliche but its a famous song for being associated with aerial attacks.

Loopy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMagzXrtvyU
DJ Splash Flying High
Definitely techno. Maybe this one might fit.

The Biplane is a classic airplane, so I usually listen to this kind of thing:
