Step 1: Go to the website

Go to Popfly.com and click create a game, it should ask you to sign in with a hotmail account. If you don't have one you need to make one and come back. You will also need to install microsoft silverlight, so your computer needs to be somewhat fast.

whats the difference between a live ID and a hotmail account?

Just so that people know, an xbox live account and a zune account are also forms of live ID's.
Big Nasty says: Jan 17, 2009. 11:47 PM
I thought hotmail, yahoo, aol, etc. were all forms of windows live IDs. so can have anyone. I guess some people prefer yahoo over hotmail.

Very interesting. It sucks that Silverlight doesn't work with Google Chrome.
Brother_D says: Oct 5, 2008. 4:10 PM
Still fun to play with though.
