Our Roadmap

Your Game Hub Link

Once

Game Hub setup
for your game is done, players can access your branded Game Hub via a link:

https://bunch.live/game/{$gamekey}

where the {$gamekey} is a unique game identifier assigned to your game by Bunch during the Game Hub setup process.

You can further customize the link with the optional parameters, as the example below shows:

https://bunch.live/game/{$gamekey}?playerID={$playerid}&source={$source}
  • {$playerid}: Gamer tag of the player inside your game. This helps us personalize the player's experience on Bunch, which is particularly important if they don't have the Bunch account set up yet.
  • {$source}: Unique string that identifies from where in your game the player opened a Bunch session. This helps us better track how your player cohorts perform on Bunch and work with you to optimize it.

Link placement examples

There are many ways to promote your Bunch Game Hub to your players inside and outside of your game. Below you can find a few examples that work best for many of our partners.

News Feature

Many developers have implemented ways to easily share updates and news with the players without needing to deploy new version of the game client. You can simply feature your Game Hub link by sharing an update about it with your players.

Influencer co-marketing

For selected games, particularly those who offer optimized experience for Bunch players (as described in

Optimizing your game
), we launch coordinated influencer marketing campaigns promoting their game and their Bunch Game Hub at the same time.

Email and Push Notifications

Another simple way to promote your Game Hub link is to tell your players about it via an email or push notification campaign. Make sure to include a {$source} parameter in the link so we can understand which initiatives and campaigns work best and work together on optimizing their performance.

Social Media Posts

In addition, you can promote your Game Hub link through your social media channels like Twitter, Subreddit, Facebook and more.
