Everyplay community guide

MAKOTO SUGANO edited this page Jan 20, 2014 · 1 revision

One of the best ways to engage the fans and players of your game is to nourish the community you have automatically in Everyplay.

First, a very brief walk-through on the basics:

Everyplay has multiple community management features built right into it. All of your players automatically follow the game where they are posting from, meaning that they will see in their main (following) feed all the posts, likes and comments you do with this account. It’s a powerful tool, so use it wisely!

Feed

In the Following feed you can see what the gamers you are following are up to. You can also see your own activities in the feed.

Post to wall

If you’re using everyplay.com, you can also post to your wall a status update in your Following feed. The message is seen by everyone who follows you, aka all the players of your game.

Mobile profile

In mobile, you can post the status updates in your profile and see them on your activity feed.

Videopage

Commenting, liking, sharing and following other interesting players is very easy. You can find all the functions on the same view. We recommend using the everyplay.com webpage for community management, since it’s faster than typing on mobile.

Videopage

Of course, the same features are easy to find in mobile, too.

Community tips

Here are some simple tips what you can do to make your fans love your game even more!

Videopage

Like and comment on the videos made from your game.

Like the developer @eltonbird of Super Soccer Champs, watch the videos made from your game and leave encouraging comments and likes. You can comment as the game itself or make yourself known as the developer of the game in question. Also, remember to reply to any questions your players might've left in the comments. Your fans love that they are paid attention by an official!

Videopage

Add some fun and act as the character from your game.

The video “Quest for the space cheese” from Crabitron was and is one of our most popular videos, and no doubt some of the hype is caused by the fact that the main character of the game, Crabitron the Giant Space Crab, is making an appearance. If your game has a main character(s) you can act as, fans can find it extremely fun and shareable. Dwell into that hero/heroine/bad guy and let the gamers know their point of view in the gameplays!

Badland

Reward the best players and make them shine

Your fans want to be acknowledged and they crave for positive attention! What you can do is simply to reward and show the best user made videos. One way to do is to do it like the guys behind BADLAND: pick the weekly best video and show it integrated in the game itself. To be featured in the game a user loves, is the most magnificent kind of reward. Of course, you can also hold contests and give out real gift cards, game items, merchandise etc. to the users that have made the best videos.

Megaramp

Share your gamers’ videos to the world

Besides rewarding and making its players shine, the developer of MegaRamp The Game is sharing the “sickest videos of the week” to their Facebook Page. Choose the most fun, innovative and hardcore videos and let the world know how skillful the players of your game are! Use all the social medias you function in: Facebook, Twitter, blogs etc. Remember to follow the best users and those fans of your game that make the best videos! That way you can discover the best videos easier.

Super Soccer Champs

Make yourself and your videos known

Again, the developer of Super Soccer Champs @eltonbird is active on making the videos himself too, with his own face and also as the game itself! Give out tips, walk-throughs etc. to help your users and show how to get the most out of your game.

The most important thing is to be active yourself, thus encouraging the users to do the same!
