Hi! Long time lurker, very occasional poster 🙂

I have been working on a game, called N++, that’s just come out on Steam, and I was wondering if I am allowed to post that in The Game Room – I know posters there know of the series, so I feel like there might be some interest. Letting the SDMB community know would mean a lot to me because I love this place, but I don’t want to run afoul of any rules.

I could do a “ask me anything” style thread, if that seems less overtly promotional.

what do you think?  
thanks for your help!

I don’t really see a problem with it.
