Game screenshots and descriptions #37

Description

@LadySerenaKitty

Personally, I think there should be some screenshots of the games and a short description of each. We do not really know much about the visitors, such as whether or not they have a disability, slow internet, a slow computer, or perhaps they're on a mobile device.

Sometimes it can be difficult to constantly click through a bunch of links. Sometimes a person's disability means they can't click through a bunch of links.

It is also common courtesy to provide, at the very least, a short description of each game. This helps visitors make a decision on which games to look at further. Screenshots are desirable for at least a couple reasons I can think of right now: allows a potential player to see the visual aesthetic of a game so they can make a decision based on that (yea, some people are shallow like that), and it allows people with visual disabilities to see if they would be able to play the game (colorblindness, high contrast).

As for the layout, I think we should borrow a page from Steam. In bold letters at the top of each entry, the name of the game. Below that, a screenshot and the description, side-by-side. Obviously we need links to the games and creators. For this, I think the link to the game itself should be first, followed by links to the company (if applicable) and then links to the creators. I'm not sure what the best layout for these links is (horizontal or vertical) but they should definitely be included. Keep in mind this layout is only a suggestion, we can work on it further.
