I absolutely LOVE the style of levls in this game. Alot more devs should use this. Imstead of making a few long levels, make ALOT of short ones!
Nice to hear! We like this kind of level system, too - It is perfect when you have 2-5 minutes to play. Turn the game on, do 1-3 quests in one stage - turn it off The best thing is - if you would like, you can always play the long - more epic levels. As I mention before there is around 6h of gameplay (if you want to collect all achievements - even more)
Thats amazing one more question to complete the test....is there a survival level? And (doesnt matter ill get it anyway but) price?
in the release version will be one survival level (with open faint to show your friends your achievments and score ) + one hidden zombie cow level (with disgusting zombie milk) - we plan to add for the update one survival level per them (8 at all) about the price... a hand full of gold coins I gues! Arr... But in $.. can't really say. When we decide a price, we will let you know
ZOMBIE COWs?! Yes! Sounds like an awesome idea, especially about the updates. This game has a ton of content, but try not to make the price TOO high....you'll lose customers that way. Honestly knowing ppl nowadays, any where from $2-$3 would make this game an absolute hit. I know this game has tons of content, but look at it, people are bitching over paying 6 bucks for the second Nazi zombie map, which has the most content I've ever seen.
Is that even out yet? (Sorry for going off topic) How long has this game been in development? Will it be submitted soon? $2-3 seems good. Especially because i only have $4.25 left in my account.
I think that the price will be around 2-3$ so do not worry! But I can't make it officialy in this moment. And the development time... around 6 months.
Wow! Really that long of a development time? Nice! Can't wait for this to be submitted. Any bugs that have been found or tweaks?
Really? You people have to nerves to complain about high prices for a good quality game and want it to come out because you only have $4.00 on your itunes account, or because everyone is complaining about a map price that belongs to another game and you speak in behalf of everyone else that no one will buy the game if its not priced low enough so all the little kids with no jobs can afford it? You guys make me sad. If the developer knows he has made a great game that delivers good graphics, fun playing, and lasting hours of content then let the developer chose what price he wants to start it at. If its a good as game as those who can support the developer for putting a great game out say its that good. then those who cry they only want $99. game will eventually pay for it. and if not then tough shit go get a job. To the developer - Don't let cheap people price your game, Look at the price of some games that start off at $9.99 and yes they are worth it, ports or not they are fun games with great graphics, use those games as a price starter and compare. if your game can't compete but is close consider 6.99 if it's not even close but still a great game then 4.99 , but please don't go by what these kids say because mommy hasn't bought them a new itunes card yet. To the cheap asses - Everyone loves a cheap priced game, Hell even i do and if i can i would rather it free. but if your always going to force developers on starting cheap and staying cheap on their games they are not going to make any money and they will leave or start on working on other ports like going to android or psp mini etc. If we keep asking developers to drop their price all the time they will be forced to look were people are willing to pay for a great quality game thus making new versions of the game take longer to come out because now they have 2-3 different phones they have to develop for.. If the developers see there is a market here and they know there is one. they will stay here and make the games. But if all they see is a bunch of bitching and complaining about " Make this game with this and that and more graphics and 20 hours+ But oh make it $.99 ", then chances are they are going else wheres. /rant Can't wait to see this game on the app store!. With all the interaction you do with the community, Contest, Beta's, and feedback you give I am sure this will be a game worth more then 2.99.
i actually have 80 dollars on my account. im just stating the amount i think most dual stick shooters are nowadays, and how much people are willing to pay for them.
Yes, now i understand what You mean, However pricing a game low because others of the same genre are low is not good "IF" your game is going to deliver more then what the competition has to offer. But this is my opinion of course. And I did not make that post to offend anyone just trying to make a point that yes we have the right to be frugal on what we want to buy, but we shouldn't use "I have 2.99 on my itunes card please make it less so i can buy it", or say "no one is going to buy your game if its more then $3.00 because I see nobody is going to pay what someone else is charging for another game i saw" It just doesn't make sense.
Hey, i wasn't complaining about it. And i said i was sorry about off topic. Deal with it. (And when i say i wasnt complaining about it, i mean it. I was just asking for the price, and gave some info about how much i would pay for it without charging it to my credit card.) I'll be happy to pay $10 for this. I'll charge it to my credit card, no problem. Just don't get all worked up about it. Alright? 2g
Your right, I probably shouldn't have used the word "complain" to describe all those quotes and I do apologize for that. I guess I was summing up the overall reason why people ask for lower prices for games which is people do complain about games being high. And no worries..I am not worked up about it
im just makiing a point, not trying to argue. but lemme help you understand my verdict. look at soosiz. 60+ levels, excellent controls, lovely graphics and gameplay elements. price? 1.99. i'd have payed much more.
Totally agree. I would have payed more as well, not to mention the developer did do a couple of updates as well as add a new level If I recall correctly. I hope he made money from it. With such a great game like soosiz it's worth like you said more then 1.99. But point being he was forced to drop price because people don't want to pay more then $.99 ,1.99 and 2.99 price points, Especially for new developers.. Hopefully that building a name for yourself after a good first release will encourage people to pay for a game with a price tag over 2.99 If the game is as good or better then their first game.
O.k. - I worked through the whole thread to get an idea of Pirate's Gold and I am really looking forward to it now.
finally someone takes the effort to actually read the whole thread instead of noobishly saying stuff like 'oh sounds cool! what are we talking about?' thanks so much for not being a noob!
