[casual_games] promotion

[Andreas Krogh]

Hi all

I was wondering if casual games are promoted at all? Here i'm thinking of
casual games made by third party developers and sold via a portal. Does a
contract between the developer and the portal state that the portal must
provide some promotion or do they just put the news of the release of the
game in their newsletter and in the "top 10 newest games" on their website,
and leave it to fate?

Any examples of contracts made where the developer presumely would get a
lower royalty precentage in exchange for the portal investing money in the
game by promoting it?
