Hey,

I've recently made a flash game, Radical Racer (http://www.particlesystem.com/haydn/ref/radical_racer.swf) and was wondering what it was worth.

Thx, Sivell.

Isn't ther personal satisfaction of making something payment enough?

If not try marketing it on Ebay?

Well you have to ask yourself first who would buy a game.

Typically if you aren't commissioned to make the game in the first place, you are probably going to have a hard time selling it to someone.

If you aren't talking about in a professional sense, and are addressing it in a 'what would buy this game for' way, I would have to say that there are many games like this available to be played for free.

Thx for the replys.

I have already had an offer to buy the game from a popular game website and they asked me how much would I be willing to selling it for. I've never sold a game before so I'm not really sure what it's worth.

Hrm, well in that case, no one can really tell you how much you should sell it for. How much do you think it is worth? How much work did you put into it?

I have never sold (or even made) a game, so I couldn't begin to tell you what they sell for, but I do know it's hard to come up with a price. The best advice I can give to you is to try not to undersell yourself.

Sorry I can't offer more help, but congratulations and I wish you luck!
