I have to assume that there is a template for Facebook games on the same level as those stock Unity games that get released on Steam by the dozens.

Divergence Online Pulled From Steam By Developer
January 29th, 2016 
Connor Divergence Online is no longer available for purchase from Steam, with developer Ethan Casner pointing to harassment from Steam users as well as displeasure with how Valve is handling said reviews/comments.

The folks behind Dino Storm have spent the better part of the last twenty four hours fighting off a distributed denial of […]

The shutdown comes in response to dwindling population numbers in all three games, and EA […]
GamersFirst Takes A Hard Stance on Scrubs In Fallen Earth
March 11th, 2013 Connor Everyone hates scrubs in their video games, and while GamersFirst isn’t exactly sure what a “scrub” is, they have the power of Merriam Webster’s dictionary. In a post on Facebook, Tee Affo has announced a new dedication to removing scrubs, no matter their definition, from Fallen Earth. Tee Affo with a special report – We’ve […]
