This game is about to be sponsored soon (Maybe before the end of april but idk) If it's sponsored before the end contest date would it be disqualified? Also would I be able to change the private file I sent to you and make it a link instead?

Awesome ! Yet another success story for Stencyl and the devs who use her :) :)

Do you mind me asking
a) did you contact any sponsors outside of fgl or do other `marketing`
b) did you use quick auction or buy it now?

a) No I stayed within FGL and let a screenshot, icon, my 8 rating and YouTube trailer do the work

b) after about two weeks of slow bidding I used quick auction to sell my game :D

Glad you got a sponsorship. I got an offer but it was insulting so I rejected it.

Thanks. Some sponsors will do that. One sponsor offered me $800 but wanted the source file and everything(that was never gonna happen) but I got a way better deal.

well done on the sponsorship! I did ok on my last 2 games, but both were sub < $500 (without giving much away). The recent of them both did the least, and was the one I was most dissapointed with - but Id put it on fgl, got a bid within an hour of it being reviewed and accepted, but then had nothing for the following couple of weeks. Ended up with a couple more bids but id maybe set last call going at the wrong time, after having great amounts of long duration plays by many sponsors, I guess last call ended before any had the chance to come back again. Then i was stuck with the choice of fairly low bids I had to choose from.

To be fair, the sponsor I chose, while I managed to up the final bid a little, they were very helpful and friendly, gave me their api in haxe (which ended up fairly easy to implement with a little help on here).. so i guess i could have ended up with alot more with another sponsor, but maybe not go as easy as it did with lesser money.

Sounds like a great sponsor. Too bad about your overall sometimes that happens. My first bid was $250 in 2 hours of approval then nothing for about 5 days then $350 then nothing for 3 days until I ended up selling it on quickauction

We're having trouble judging your entry because it's site locked, and playing the SWF trips the lock off. Could you resend an unlocked version or a hosted version?

here is a idea for the level select it could be on the poptart it self you would design the poptart with decorations as you progress through the game like sprinkles or icing lines however you choose. so for each level complete a new sprinkle appear on the poptart body. or you can make those as badges  also a nice game if you use this idea just say thanks ;)

 also check out my game demo which ive been working on
