What sells
Maps sell the most on Forja, by far. Buyers want things that save them time: a map they can open and play today, a system that works on day one, a UI kit that fits phones, a game template they can make their own.
A listing that sells
- Pictures first. A sharp 16:9 cover from inside your game, then more angles or a video. Listings with several pictures or a video can be shown on Forja's home page.
- A title that says what it is. "Japanese Town Map with Shrine and Train Station" finds buyers; "Map V2 FINAL" doesn't.
- A Key Features list. Write Key Features: on its own line and list them under it with dashes. Forja shows the list as its own box on your listing.
- What buyers still need to do. Forja reads your file and shows its parts, scripts and size; say in words what's set up and what isn't.
- Clean scripts. Code that loads code from outside the file keeps a listing waiting for an admin. Ship your own code, not a
requireof an asset id.
Pricing
Look at what similar listings cost on Forja and where yours sits. A free listing is a good start: free downloads bring people to your store, and the ones who follow you hear about your paid listings. To give a paid listing a push, put it on sale for a few days from your dashboard.
Getting paid
Each sale goes to your Stripe account, and Stripe pays it out to your bank. Every sale shows in your dashboard.
