How do I add a release date for a self-published game? To add a release date, you need to add a publisher, and unsurprisingly, most small devs are not in the publisher database... Alternatively, what do I input as the publisher for self-published games?

For context, I was trying to add a game to my owned games but I couldn't, and then I realized it's probably because the game lacks a release date. (Funnily enough though, somehow the game has one owner.)

Adding publishers is restricted to the DB team.
I have been adding a lot of smaller devs/pubs in the recent weeks but there are still so many left.

Tell me which ones you are missing and I will gladly add them :)

Can you please add Sydney Development?  They developed some games for the ColecoVision and other early 80's platforms.

Added!

Great, thanks!  Can you also add Exidy, Mylstar Electronics, and Video Games GmbH as developers?  I've been putting some work into the ColecoVision section of the Game Database, and they developed a few games for that system as well.  Looks like those are the only other ones missing for the games that I would like to add.

Sorry wasn't online the past few days.

But seems like they all are already in the database.

Yes, no worries!  Kirby messaged me that it was done and that I could proceed.  Thanks!

Can we add "Stegosoft Games" as a Developer to the database?  I'd like to get "Rise of the Third Power" into the game database, which they developed.  The publisher, "Dangen Entertainment" is already in the database, so no issues there.

Can we add Five Aces Publishing as a publisher to the database?  They handled the porting of "Retro Bowl" on the Switch.  The developer, New Star Games, was already in the database, so there was no issue getting the game itself added.  Just need the publisher added to update the Release Date.

In addition to this, can we also add Spicy Tails as a publisher to the database?  They are in the database as a developer already, but they both developed and published Project LUX.  So, I am unable to enter the release date for the game until they appear in the list of publishers as well.

Is there any way this database can be accessed for creating Tableau Viz?
