That's not a bad idea... I wonder how???

Im not exactly sure. I think you can contact them.

http://store.steampowered.com/

Edit: AHA I have found it. You have to download a file at the bottom of the page where it says tools. But at the moment there is no 'Mac' download. Maybe we could try linux.

I didn't think about Steam. If Valve adds a "Mac" download, I think we'll have found our backup in case Apple wants to block us.

Think you need a bloody great game..I have contacted them several time regarding Bumps and also Tumble Jumble (PC version) and they turned me down but gl if you do manage to get on as i hear sales are pretty good for the devs.

Or a 3D game. There are some CRAP 3D games in there... but you've reminded me... now that I have an Intel Mac I can play all the Steam games! Time to re-open my account! WOOHOO!

Yeh the games will have to be pretty good. VML said that as well. But Im sure there is a few of us (*cough, t-shirt, quantum-sheep, fire maples...) that could get a couple games in there.

I talked to the creators of the popular coop zombie shoot em up Killing Floor and he told me that you need a professional industry standard game before contacting them through phone or email and if they accept you game they give you the steamworks package for you to upload your game.

The reason there are some cheap rubbish games on steam is because some of the big registered publishers are sometimes publishing these.

Personaly at the moment I think we have little chance of getting games on steam but if someone does then that's great news.
Good luck
