I've spent a good amount of the day creating a new feature which is called 'Game of the Week'.

Each week there will be 1 game that the RGR Staff thinks is so good that it deserves to have its own spotlight as 'Game of the Week' on the Index of the Retro Game Room.

This game will not only be thoroughly reviewed by the RGR Staff but it'll also cost 0 Viz to buy for that entire week!

You can find the Game of the Week below the vertical ad on the right of the RGR Index page. Be sure to check it out every week for a really good game worth playing. Oh, and remember, it's free!

It's already gone into affect, are you unable to see the Game of the Week on the RGR index page?

I can see the page and all but it's really easy to miss The Game of the Week, do you think moving it would make it easier to see?

I thought about it but I'd hate to push the ad down and not make as much off of it, the cost of server and the plugin are just getting costly that I need the extra ad money. Also the bandwidth of the server is going up incredibly fast so I definitely need the money for that as well. I'll look into another solution to making it stick out more.

retro _general: Do you see the top searches column to the left of the RGR index page? If not, it might be that your screen isn't wide enough to display everything, try scrolling over to your right.

Very nice I like it but it took a minute to find it. I got a small screen I think it looks great there and theres plenty of room for other things in that area if you plan on adding more stuff.

I found it in about a second . Never heard of the game... but I guess that's kind of the point right? To get some of those lesser known games some attention.

I think it's fine where it is. I don't think this needs to be plastered all over. Once people know about it there won't be any problem seeing the new ones come out.

I also thought it was a bit hard to find. Especially considering a lot of people might not scroll down. Might just search for the game they want straight away. Although I think the look and size of it is fine.
It could possibly go above top searches on the other side, or even maybe have it automatically go into the 1st position in the list of games no matter what is searched or what category it's under (obviously with a lot of signals showing that it isn't actually what they were looking for could just say 'Game of the Week on it)

joebab: People will usually have to scroll down when they're looking for a game though so people will find it eventually and once they do, they'll know where to look each week.

I might put it above the top searches, only problem with that is, people who have a screen that can't fit all 3 columns the left column gets cut off completely and the right column you have to scroll over to see.

Ok I decided to put it in both spots, to the left above top searches and to the right below the ads.

It'll take up both spots until we have enough reviews to do a 'Game of the Day' as well in which case the 2 spots would rotate. So in other words, 50% of the time the top left ad would be Game of Week and other 50% of time it would be game of day (and same with the other spot).

You must have a smaller monitor, the 2 side columns are designed to cut off for people with smaller monitors but you should still be able to scroll over to the right on the page.

I designed the RGR smart enough so that it could fit multiple monitor sizes with no problems. If your monitor was bigger, you'd see even more content on the left but it's not very important so that's why it gets cut off if you're monitor isn't as big.

Well, I was thinking that you could make an index page for https://www.vizzed.com/vizzedboard/retro/ that would display game of the week and random game of the day when people click the RGR, but this works too.
Or you could put the game of the week next to the RGR picture up the top left.
Just some other options
