At the top of this page is a "submit" button. Clicking on it leads to a form for submitting a flash game to Armor games, but there is absolutely nothing on that page that explains why I would want to do that.
Does Armor games offer any compensation for displaying my game? Does anyone have a link to a page with this information?

Thanks

And by the way, what's up with this forum? I created this topic almost 12 hours ago, but when I check back the forum tells me it was posted "just a little while ago". I am replying to my post right now in an attempt to refresh the forum.

If your game is good enough to get on the site, you get advertising on your page. I think that the site pays you some money over time for advertising, but if they don't you can advertise in your game (like Colony multiplayer).
I suggest you ask a moderator.

If you want money for it, you have to ask Armorgames to sponsor your give and also put ads on your game. (usually on the loading screen)

You don't get money just for submitting it on their site.

The forums are rather screwed up and glitchy... the times usually refresh each time someone posts.

You could possibly try to get your game sponsored and earn money. Only if it is exquisitly good though.

I have a question to add to this:

If I submitted a game and then edited it later, would they replace my old game with the new edited version? I have a game that is finished but I am too afraid to submit in case I want to add something or in case a glitch comes up.

Diddy, if you are worried, make sure you test the game extensively yourself before submitting it. It pays off in the end.

Updates. All sorts of games get updated all the time.

Or, that's where a sequel comes in, so you can improve upon everything that people didn't like and make it better.

If you make a lame game, then why should Armor Games pay you?

I believe you should submit a game so others can play it. By letting others play it you will receive feed back and tips to make it better. This will help you also.

If you want to submit your games purely for money, you could try and get your games sponsored by Armorgames or another website, but if that doesn't work, you could, for example, submit your games to Kongregate which gives you up a portion of the revenue earned from your game (Either 25%, 35%, 40%, or 50%).

Well, if you submit your game, you'll get money. Making a Flash Game is hard, so for credit, you get MONEY...
