What are the first steps here? I'm thinking about hosting it, making a little contest for new players with some little award to attract their attention (around 50 euro), then if everything goes okay, putting some ads there.

What are your advices?

I'd look into a platform to market it first of all. Most big name companies like apple and steam take a 30% fee from your game per purchase, and requires a one time payment for a green light licenses.

Ah, yea, forgot to add it's a browser game - it's changing a lot I guess.

Sorry for that, I'm kinda sleepy - in last 2 days I have slept less than 7 hours.

probably highly illegal.

but anyway, is it a pc/web game, or what?

Don't hold a contest yet. Let people join the userbase, let the game develop some prestige, then you can hold a contest. For now, put balanced microtransactions.

What type of game is it? MMO?

Mind showing a picture of it?
Release it on android, it's the perfect fucking market, porting it might be an issue though, if you want to go F2P, you could use ads.

Honestly I'd kickstarter it and pretend you're not done with it yet. Give some stretch goals for stuff you've already done and maybe add some cherries on top for if people interested go nuts.

That way, you can work on it even more, make a prodcut you're really proud of while not starving. And then deliver it in say a year's time as an excellent crowdfunded product.

Just one idea. There are other good ones in the thread.

Although, if it's a little phone game, don't bother, there is little interest on crowdfunding sites for such games. Instead you should hope it will sell well on the apple marketplace or the android store and go through them
