You know it, I know it. The Stars! community is dying. The PRT forums and the Academy have barely been touched except by me in a year. There's a grand total of two games left active on SAH.
We need to do something about this. I really should have made this post a while ago, and it might even be too late now, but we have to try. There are two basic things we need to do.
1) Advertise. Each of us left needs to promote Stars! anywhere we can. I can hit the various forums of the Spacebattles-sphere, but we really need someone to advertise on the various gaming subReddits. Advertisement also isn't going to do much unless we...
2) Reduce barriers to entry. Each advertisement post needs to link Starsbox, Starswine... and a free means of getting keys. Yes, Ron, I know you've historically been worried about people cheating with multiple keys. But any price on a game this old is a serious barrier to entry, not to mention the hassle. You need to release the keygen, or SAH is extinct and no-one will ever cheat again anyway. Please, I'm begging you.
Another Fledgling Admirals game or two wouldn't go astray either, if Altruist is willing.
