App Store Sales: Trism, Band, Pianist, Guitarist
 With increasing competition, it's harder for developers to get their applications noticed. Some developers have started offering sales to boost sales and recognition. A few notable apps that have recently gone on sale include: (price links to App Store) Trism ($4.99 -> $2.99) - puzzle game (review) Band ($5.99 -> $1.99) - collection of virtual instruments (a look at Band) Pianist ($5.99 -> $1.99) - virtual piano (YouTube video) Guitarist ($5.99 -> $2.99) - virtual guitar (YouTube video) Trism recently made headlines after its developer revealed he had earned $250,000 from game sales in the first two months since its release.

Looks good, I may have to buy Trism now.
BTW, price link doesn't go to the App store for trism, it goes to touch arcade.

just bought Pianist! I was thinking about buying it earlier, but I couldn't justify a purchase at the old price.
Yay! Time to practice playing Mad World.... |

Also, Pangea Software are having a sale - they say that the prices of Enigmo, Cro-Mag Rally, Bugdom 2, Pangea VR Pro and Billy Frontier are all down (Cro-Mag is really cheap - Enigmo, I'm not so sure about...).
Hope that helps someone! |

Yeah, I just bought 'Band', and am glad I didn't pay $10 for it. The only thing mildly interesting is the "12-bar blues", but even then, it's not fun for more than a few minutes. It's not what I expected. Last edited by mainstreetmark : Sep 23, 2008 at 05:42 PM. |

Again?
When did the iPhone Blog turn into a "sales paper" for the App Store?
Three of the last six stories have been on "app sales"... Maybe we need an App Store Blog instead?

hey, just thought, where's the MacRumors iphone app? create an app to be able to sign in and take us directly here to make posting from iPhone a little easier?
it'll probably get refused due to duplicating something or something . . .
