Hi, I'm one of the creators of the landing page. We thought traditional beta signup pages were boring (ie. Launchrock style) so we added a "Ravn Hunt" game to our landing page. Our landing page was pretty traditional beforehand, but after the game, user conversion went up as people became more engaged, and kept playing for the invite code.

It also helps that we invite the top 10 users who achieve the highest score everyday so that people have a goal to reach to get the invite. And of course, the Facebook share button helps with spreading the word.

Here's a pic of our old landing page http://i.imgur.com/ZhURi.png

It was pretty straight forward, full size image in the background with a simple Request Invitation button in the middle. Hope that helps.

You could just have the game ask to enter your email address if you want to save your scores.
