How to make a demo

[diklazam]

I have finishted my commercial game. I read the conditions of the posting finished games but i
dont know how to make a demo. I know nothing about this subject. I would appriciate your
advice.

Take your full game.
Cut it in 5 parts.
Take the first 2 parts.
The demo is ready.

a demo is basically a limited form of the full game.
so copy your game and delete the later content until it is limited to what you want to show before purchasing.

there is no specific requirement that that content needs to be 2/5 of the game - a demo could be 2% of a game or 80% of a game depending on your wishes. There are only two questions that needs to be checked for demo length:
1) does the demo show what the game is about?
It needs to contain enough to let the player know if he will like the game or not
2) is the rest of the game worth paying for?
If most of the game is in the demo, some players might decide not to spent money for the tiny rest.
