Name change?

Any chance of changing the name to Construkt or something? It's hard to find anything on this on google/youtube because the word Construct applies to thousands of other things.

you should search under the name

Scirra

for now on for better result .

there is no need to change the name.

"Construct" gives the Scirra site as the first two results in Google for me. I think the name is fine. Intentional misspellings are... well, they're lame, to put it bluntly.

We'd also sabotage our own high Google rating for 'Construct', so I don't think we'll ever change it!

Being #1 for Construct doesn't mean anything unless they're actually looking for the game maker. Other countries will get other results - I get .

And look at this - http://www.youtube.com/results?search_q ... t+tutorial

Sorry it seems game maker is already taken.

On the other hand:

Being #1 for Construct doesn't mean anything unless they're actually looking for the game maker.

That's quite likely going to change. Construct hasn't even launched yet. There's a whole lot of people out there waiting until v1.0, and when that happens you will see the user base for Construct rise in number dramatically, which will in turn raise Google ratings across the board. It's already the #1 Google result in several countries and it's still just in beta... when it finally has a proper launch I don't think anyone will have any trouble finding it.

Patience, my friend .

As for searching for "game makers" yeah, there's a bit of a monopoly on that one thanks to YoYo Games and all. Links to GM and YoYo related stuff take up the entire front page of Google. It can't really be helped.

We wouldn't change our name anyway. We'd instantly go back to zero pagerank on search engines! And we have a top ranking to lose...

"Game Constructor"

Any chance of changing the name to Construkt or something? It's hard to find anything on this on google/youtube because the word Construct applies to thousands of other things.

Currently it tops on Google, if you add extra keywords, such as 'tutorial', you will always get Construct. Use 'Scirra' keyword to get it on the very top.

As for Youtube, there aren't many video tutorials for Construct yet, because it makes sense to wait until it is feature complete. Just ask Deadeye about maintaining his platform tutorial and it ain't even video.

Anyway, what difference a proper keyword makes: Scirra Construct on Google Videos

And here I was hoping you could change the name to "Stensyl".

As far as I know no physically available game making program has a similar name.

What was that I said about intentional misspellings being lame? Oh yeah...

I think Khuhnszchtrukt is kinda cool

haha, I get this as the first result .. http://www.constructcanada.com/index.asp

Scirra.com is the third result for me.
