    bingo! :)

    i have only just seen this thread while i think it is great to have an ambition to re-write app store history, you need to think about who you are up against! there are so many companies investing more money in advertising and marketing than you have earnt in your whole life just to get in the top 5%.. even if you have an awesome app, unless it gets noticed - forget it.

    hodapp is understanding and reasonable - but push him too far and your done. as Mr. Ugly mentions, you wont get that far with other websites / forums.

    as for your game, "Super Meebo", sounds like it will be a "Super Mario" clone/variant.. be careful with Nintendo, i have dealt with them in the past, they will come after you so quickly that you wont know what hit you. clones walk a thin line between ok and threatening enough for the IP owner to put what they can to make sure you do not succeed. good luck with that.

    Perhaps in description you could also give some attention (as should I to my prev). Your second feature 'Highscore Save' doesn't sound very, featury.

    Thanks for the positive words guys I need them. As far as the bird I tried to make him similar but not a clone of the tiny wings bird. As far as the feature HighScore save , I have the mentality of just putting everything the game has to offer the player, I know to some its not featury but there was a time where the highscore was king haha(doodle jump).

    The amount of apps your team made is impressive!! I saw your apps page on MAC store and it was like a mini-store within the Macstore!! Has any of your games got featured or just steady sales.

    Trust me I know some things just slip like this http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/super-marik/id512430456?mt=8

    Now when I tried in the past to make a game that was mario like this apple would block it but this went straight threw and has been on the charts forever. Noticed they just changed the name it was Super Marik before.

    Beautiful Bird's Flying Adventure beats Whale Trail on Appsfire

    Appsfire tracks twitter to see what games and apps are trending on twitter and recieveing the most retweets. I have been promoting Beautiful Birds Flying Adventure hard on twitter and was happy to see my game ranked above Whale Trail considering the marketing muscle UStwo has over me. This shows even the little guy can stand toe to toe with larger companies . Before anyone comes in flaming this is just an example that an indie can market just like a pro, if its an even medium.
    Download my game now while its on a 1 day free tour.
    Doesnt Beautiful Bird Flying Adventure Just Match the greats icon wise? Its almost as if Beautiful Bird just shines in comparison to them, ok ok Iam just bugging out. I wish!!

    I love this forum, seems like everytime I turn around there is something negative to say most of the time. So if my game ranks its spam? I got retweeted by other people a total of 230 retweets thats how I ranked. Since you dont want to know how I got those retweets by other, I will keep that information to myself. See instead of asking questions to learn, you just want to bash, so go ahead and bash. It wont help you sell more copies of your game or app,just makes you feel good that you can say something without consequences.

    Thanks for the feedback Connector!! This wasnt my main game project , it was a casual game , I added achievements for replay value and will update it later. My main project is on hold for a while , but I will let you know when it comes. This game was meant for a casual userbase and yes whale trail does have me beat , as that was thier main project. I get them with my bigger project in the future though!!

    P.S. I used the screenshot straight from appsfire as proof of my small personal victory. I actually know one of whale trail's developer not very well but we talk. I love those guys , they are mad funny if you ever got to chat with them.They always got something good to say and come up with thier own catch phrases too.

    Hey Playtripp hahaha I know that gave you a little scare. Hows the game doing, I hope apple features it so you can get what you rightfully deserve for making such a classic game.

    I dont think thats a good idea , the mods are too busy fighting spam and calming arguements. If people got along better maybe the mods would have time to implement pther stuff. This website is insanely busy , even at 3-4a.m. its still buzzing.
    @Hodapp I will do my best to stay away from fights and stuff, I know it makes your job harder. I want to be an asset to this site , not bring it down.

    They say that because the more rating there are, the higher the sales. Apple cut is only 30% and they dont lose money. But with feedback on what you want in an update, insures that we use your excellent idea in our game.
