I am trying to open a port in a Windows Azure virtual machine. I have a game listening on that port, and I am able to access it via localhost, so the game is running.
I have also opened the port in the firewall and created an endpoint in the virtual machine, but the port doesn't seem to be open to the outside world. I have tried accessing it both via the IP address and the DNS with the same results.
Is there anything else I should do? I have looked up several tutorials online and can't figure out what I am doing wrong.

To forward ports in VirtualBox, first open a virtual machine's settings window by selecting the Settings option in the menu. Select the Network pane in the virtual machine's configuration window, expand the Advanced section, and click the Port Forwarding button.
To find specified open port, use find switch. For example, to find if the port 560 is open or not, do netstat -an |find /i "560" command. The service should listen on 0.0.
After you create a virtual machine, you need to modify the network security group (NSG) to allow connections from TCP port 8080 to the virtual machine. Instructions: Review the underlined text. If it makes the statement correct, select "No change is needed".

I would recommend ignoring 100% of what is on google at the moment

Irina, make sure you have configured your endpoint properly by setting the private and public port. Here's a documentation that explains the steps to accomplish this...
