Valve Corporation, best known as the creators of games like "Counter-Strike," "Half-Life," "Left 4 Dead", and "Portal," has announced the launch of Steam Greenlight, which is a brand new platform feature that procures the community's help in selecting some of the next games to be released on Steam.
Steam Greenlight allows developers and publishers to post information about their game in an effort to persuade the Community that the game should be released on Steam. Greenlight is associated with Steam Workshop's supple system that organizes content and allows customers to rate content and leave feedback.
Valve's Anna Sweet stated that the company has been working on this feature for the last few months, with input from a group of indie partners, and the response has been extremely positive.
Anna also added that with "the additional help of beta testers, we are able to launch with a solid line-up of titles for the community to start viewing and rating. And, as we've done with all Steam features, we intend to continually grow and modify Greenlight as more and more developers and community members have a chance to get involved."
Greenlight provides an amazing level of added exposure for new games and a chance to connect directly with potential customers and fans.
