Hey everyone

I haven't made enough money for Apple to give me anything for my months of weekends and evenings of effort - I guess 59p/99c was just too much ! :p

Anyway, it's all my own work, coding, graphics and sounds. Please leave me a review or some comments - getting feedback on my efforts is really appreciated :)

So enjoy my FREE GAME !

Looks nice, i'll take a look at it later on. Do you mind telling how your sales were when it was 99 cents?

Yeah sorry your sales weren't going very well.

I had never heard of this game till now. But I will try it out.

About 60 sales in two months, but it tailed off to zero towards the end of those two months.

Most of those sales were the days after the initial release, and the promo codes had an impact, but downloads have increased to (on average) 500 a day since making it free, although this has started tailing off.

I ended up making it free because I'd rather have people download it for free than have no-one download it at all ;)

Making it free has been an interesting experiment anyway, I think a lot of it is to do with timing, and the type of software you're releasing :rolleyes:

Question: I was just about to download the app, but it says it costs $0.99..I thought you had changed it to free? :confused:
