Please help Vampires! to see a light or better "Greenlight"

Dear GameBoomers,

you might know me from our former titles Ghost in the Sheet, J.U.L.I.A. and J.U.L.I.A. Untold (or as a faithful forum member too).

I have to confess, that I did turn to a dark side for our next game which is about saving poor little vampires from mortal perils lurking in the depths of dungeons.

It's a little offbeat comedy puzzler filled with traps, Transylvania music and fun which we did to take a little break from story driven games (and even now we want to get back already).

We've prepared playable demos, which are for PC, Mac and even web browsers so you can try our game right now by playing whooping 16 levels (out of final 65).

So where's the catch?

We're really trying hard to get to Steam as our situation is not ideal right now and I feel that Steam could drastically improve our survival chance.

One of the publishers, we've negotiated with in the last 6 months, dropped our big 3D adventure game we've been working on for quite some time and we are currently fighting on too many fronts.

Getting to Steam is a very hard with the Greenlight thing and it requires a big community effort.

So to make it short. In case you want to help us and you like our game, please answer Yes on this page.

The question you're answering to is
"Would you buy this game if it were available in Steam?"

This click requires you to have Steam client and also you must own at least one game purchased through steam (AFAIK) so please don't try it if you never worked with Steam. It would not be that easy like in the case when you already have a steam game.

By clicking "Yes", you don't pay anything. It's just an information for Steam, that the game will have a solid number of customer or some similar reasoning to include the game in their catalogue.

Thank you very much for your help!

Ps. I hope I didn't break any forum rule. If I did, please remove this post.

Done! With your permission, I'd like to post this at Mystery Manor too, if you haven't already done so.

Vampiriest?

Yes - of course.

Jan - would this game be better at casual forum or is this a full blown action game? Arcade game?

Of course, I'll let Jan answer, but I'm downloading the demo right now and it appears to be an arcade type game. Not sure though.

EDIT: This game is entirely TOO MUCH FUN! And, yes, it's a arcade style game where you try to get the little vampires safely home to their crypts before dawn. Not easy by any means though! Music is great too.

This is a must-have fore me! I sure hope the Steam Greenlight works out.

Jan, of course I'll vote for you!

This looks like fun; I'll give the demo a try.

And the Vampire Queen is the Vamp-irest.

Definitely deserves a look and a vote.

Thank you everyone for the support! Right now we're at 16% to reach top 100 games. Once we're there the real battle for the Greenlight starts!

Jan, I'm going to go ahead and post this over at Mystery Manor too if that's OK.

Draclvr, thank you!

Voted!

I just voted for you! I saw a game I had to have that was really on sale, so voted for you right afterward

Thank you! For your information - we're getting incredible support. In mere two days we got 7200 unique game views and who knows how many votes. Each of your vote really counts so thank you again.

This is really exciting if a bit exhausting stuff. Now I finally understand how someone could be addicted to something - oh! it's 2:30 AM again.

After a week of not being able to log onto Steam, I finally got on and voted now.

Thank you.

I hope you are doing well!

I'm wondering how the voting is going, metamorphium???

We're currently at 11500 unique visitors and 129 people added the game to favorites. Judging by my internal estimation (read absolutely wild guessing) we have something in between 3000 and 4000 upvotes. But only Valve knows exact numbers.

Thank you very much for helping us and I'll keep you informed.

I wish we could cast a new vote each day.
