@ Ollie is my name: The only thing about Mythopea Games is that a lot of people were suspicious of them and probably still are. A lot of people did not like the design of their website and all, as well as taking high fees. They did make a lot of claims, whichno one knows if they cna back up. One positive thing I cna say, is that they are registered with the ESRB. I sent the ESRB a letter and asked because they mad a claim for one of their packages, that they would give the game a ESRB rating. The ESRB rating only really applies ot the US, but if you do get it it will open doors as many big retailers here only take games with a ESRB rating.
I cannot say whether you should or should not go with them. If you sent them like a one or two level demo I do not see how it would hurt. I would sya use your own discretion. I cna say thta if they cna do everything they say they cna do, they could get your game out there better in retail stores. I am workign with Nano Games and we have come into som obstacles with retailers, especially since I cannot get a ESRB rating for their game as I am not a ESRB member.
You would be the only person I know about in th eforums that would have used Mythopea Games. So, just do what you fele would be right. If you do nto have any custom media in the game and if you are not expecting anything in return, then I would say try it. Because if they were not legitimate then you wouldnt have lost anythign as far as custom content is concerned. If you do decide to use them, then let us know if they do everythign they say they can. That way other people here could find out.
I wish you hte best of luck in this. My website is at http://www.egamestudio.com and there ar elinks at the bottom for different options. The Game Distribution link and the Sell through us. Those are two different options. I will be honest and say that if Mythopea Games is legit, then they could take your game much farther on the mainstream retial market. I am focusing on different startegies now based upon the latest experience I have had here. I am doing a different marketing plan then before focused on mroe direct sales onstead of third party sales. So, we will see how that goes.
