Follow Twitter Accounts, Get Free Games
Rake in Grass is currently running a Larva Mortus giveaway promotion, where the first fifty followers of their Twitter account will get a copy of the full game for free. There were at least twenty-two copies left to grab at the time of writing.
As proven by Wolfire and Pocketwatch Games' free game promotions, indie game developers stand to gain a lot in return (everything from growing support to sales increases) just by giving away their games.
If you have a Twitter account for development updates and encountered difficulties in getting the word out, then start giving some games away today.
[UPDATE: Rake in Grass' giveaway promotion has been extended for an extra week, so there's plenty of time for everybody to follow their Twitter account and get a free code for Larva Mortus.]

The 50 codes have gone and the tweet has been changed to "Great, 50 codes were gave away within 2 hours! We are extending GIVEAWAY for a week, and codes will be for everybody. Please be patient".
Does that mean if I follow now I get a code or do I have to wait fr them to give the go-ahead?

I was fortunate enough to be one of the 1st 50 to follow @rakeingrass...they promptly shot me a code and I've been playing Larva Mortus for a couple hours. It's pretty damn fun! Sort of a mashup between Diablo II and iDracula on the iPhone.

I got my code, too, and I love the game. :D It's really fun. I almost feel ashamed for playing it and not supporting Rake in Grass, I already loved their "Jets'n'Guns".
