Title: Network lobby needed
Post by: hay207 on October 04, 2019, 01:47:43 am

Hi, thanks all for this game, i think the game needs a network lobby to see online users, and more advertisement.

The game's too great, Keep up the good work, looking forward to playing online with someone.

The game has an irc game lobby - if that's what you meant -, there are just not so many players.

I don't know how it works since Greenlight was ended. Quick googling shows that Wesnoth is published by "Wesnoth Inc.". I don't what it needs to become a publisher on Steam, but I'm afraid it is not a trivial thing...

While it is possible to self publish a game on steam, one needs to pay a $100 fee per game published (or so the steam docs about the end of greenlight said last time I heard of that), so I don't really think it's worth it (or even feasible) in this case.
