Above the ready-up button there is a news feed that shows updates to Battle Royale, Festival, etc.
What if we had this for Creator-made games?
Here’s how I think it could work;
- Per game, in Creator Portal, there is a tab for News. You can submit an image, description, title, and an (optional) video per article to show in the news tab. The video would play as a gif.
- Up to 3 articles can be submitted at a time, and can be changed without updating the map.
- All news articles must go through moderation and must get accepted to show on news tabs at all. Similar to islands, but it should probably be stricter (in some areas).
- News articles are very likely to show when hovering over their island in the homebar, and when the map is selected. If the map is favorited, then there’s a chance it shows on other modes as well with a button to go to the gamemode.
- Analytics tabs will show how many users saw the ad, users that clicked on the news feed when it was showing, etc.
I believe adding this could improve the promotional experience for players, and could be a way to show players the type of experience they’ll have before entering the map.
I really hope this gets considered and potentially added!
Thank you for reading.
