How Can I Make a GOOD Game Get Noticed?

I'm Making a New Zombie Game Called 'Hunt or Be Hunted' (You Can See The Trailer On My Page). I think this can be BIG, If I can get it noticed by a fair amount of people.
I have a feeling that it wont have as much views as It could get, So I was wondering, what could I do?

Re: How Can I Make a GOOD Game Get Noticed?

Make your signature have an interesting ad with an automatic link.  See mine is a Tron advertisement?  If it's colorful and has a link, people will click it.  Bumping your Show and Tell topics is good, adding to galleries, and making a lot of tags.

Other than that it's pretty much left to chance whether people catch on or not.

What can you do?
Well, putting it on Show and Tell really goes a long way. I have had a game get many views because of this. Also, be kind to others. They will want to see your projects if you, like, leave nice comments on their walls or love-it their project.

Put an image link inside the tags [url=(link)] and [/ur]

Here's an example (quote this to see the text):

You can open an image in Scratch or Paint or something and enlarge it manually.

But there's a signature size limit, so don't go crazy.
