UPDATE: Please see this post for some more clarification on my thoughts on this little experiment.

In response to Ron’s post at Headcase Games, I’d also like to give back to the community a bit with some free game advertising. I don’t get tons of traffic on my site, but it’s pretty steady, and the iDevBlogADay thing is giving it a nice boost.

The catch

The catch is, I don’t like advertising. And since I’m giving away the ad space for free, I feel that I can add this one stipulation: I have to like the game being advertised. I’d like to use the ad space as a sort of “I recommend this game” kind of deal. I’m not out to offend anyone, I just want to maintain the integrity of the site. I got the idea from Penny Arcade; they turn down even lucrative ad campaigns for games they don’t like, and I appreciate that.

If you want to send me an ad and your iTunes link, you can do so at mike at weheartgames dot com. If I haven’t already played the game and it’s not free, I might ask for a promo code. Ad size should be 180 x 150, straight up JPG, PNG or GIF. No SWFs or animated GIFs please.

The ads will go in the right sidebar, under “We ♥ these games”. I reserve the right to leave a mini-review in the title tag, which will be visible when you hover the mouse over the ad.
