edited November -1 in Working with GS (Mac)
Hey guys,

I bought Jungle Bug from the great Utopian Games a couple of months ago, but just a few days ago I determined I will no longer be able to work with it due to a load of work I have this year. The next time I will be able to touch jungle bug would be next year, and I want to see a great game like this hit success before that.

If I did work on it now, it would just be a huge rush and such a mess, and I don't want to see it fail. I want it to be in the hands of someone who will stay committed and put some effort into it, something that I will not be able to provide. It honestly is a great game, with superb music and graphics, and extremely fun gameplay.

With leaderboards and gamecenter coming soon, this game will be perfect for that. I can definitely imagine a ton of themes being put into this just like doodle jump, such as jungle(default right now), underwater, volcanic, etc. I really wish I could work on it, but I just can't find the time anytime soon, and I really wanna see it hit huge success asap. I just want to see it be huge, and I think that it has the potential to do just that.

As it is coming from one of gamesalads most successful users Utopian Games, it definitely won't be cheap so serious buyers only.

    This was one of my favourite games to make.

    Arton has taken it further than i expected and it's now a brilliant game.

    If your looking for a game you can be proud of Jungle Bug is the one your after.

    A note on the price as I'm not sure what he wants for it but the art and music alone for JB cost me a bomb as it was specially made by top professionals.

    The game took me 2 months to code and Arton has took it way beyond what i did so whatever he wants i would say it's worth it!

    Arton, just so you aware, this guy stole Jungle Bug and is selling it on the App Store:

    http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fluffy-bugs/id415155587?mt=8

    He's stolen other GS games as well.

    Fluffy BugsBy Triforce Studio

    Arton, you uploaded it to the GS website as a demo, even if you dont make it downloadable people can still download the project in full. It seems this has what he has done! So no, it wont just be screenshots, it'll be code, graphics and sounds!

    Triforce studios has removed the game off of the appstore, glad that is cleared up now.
  • expired_012expired_012 Member Posts: 1,802
    Sorry for the confusion. Now that all that is dealt with, I just wanted to say that the game is still for sale and open to any requests.

    Email me at artonskyblue(at)gmail(dot)com if interested.

    Thanks

    Although this is a GREAT game, I just don't think I would have the money for this. As you said it was made by utopian games, which means price goes up. I wish you would just make it a template and sell it to everyone and keep the selling rights. Thanks. Looks great, hope you get a buyer.

    Selling as a template is not a bad idea...$100 a go easy for a game of this quality and I'm sure you would sell at least 50.

    As it stands my platform template has sold over 90 copies at $50.

    Unfortunately the prick ripping off jungle bug has prob really hurt your chances at selling the game out right. You may have to shift gears and sell as a template with only rights to code and not art or something like that. THen you can still work on the jungle bug game you have in the future at some point and you have already recovered your purchase price.

    Good Luck

    Hey guys,

    Ive gotten a few offers and im in the middle talking to a few people right now. If selling it to one person doesn't work out, I may have no choice but to sell it as a template.
  • IncrediboIncredibo Member Posts: 274
    @ArtonSkyBlue
    I really want you to sell it but i think u will honestly make more as a template let say its $50 i think around or even more than 50 will buy iy u will get 2500
  • expired_012expired_012 Member Posts: 1,802
    Hey,

    The only thing with that is, its not guaranteed that a template will sell alot of copies. If it ends up selling only 5 then I would be pretty bummed :( Maybe I could tally up all of the people wanting it as a template and then if im happy with the number I could sell it.

    If I sell it as a template, then obviously the assets will have to be replaced to prevent dozens of jungle bug games all with the same graphics...

    Maybe I can sell the full game with all the graphics for MUCH cheaper than before, and then also sell the template for something like $50-$100 with placeholder assets that you can change on your own.

    Maybe im just talking nonsense, please let me know what you all think.
  • IncrediboIncredibo Member Posts: 274
    @ArtonSkyBlue

    That's a plan up there yah sell the full game with graphics
    & template with a little bit of graphics
    & tally it up sound good
  • expired_012expired_012 Member Posts: 1,802
    I am unable to add a poll in here, so instead..

    If you would be interested in buying a template very similar to this except with placeholder graphic and sound assets for $50 please email me just saying you would be interested. I am trying to tally up to see if it would be worth it to sell this as a template.

    Email: artonskyblue(at)gmail(dot)com

    Also please let me know the highest your willing to pay for it. The reason being, the higher its priced at the less copies I will need to sell.

    Thanks

    @ArtonSkyBlue the place holder is a big feature you should add it for an additional price
  • expired_012expired_012 Member Posts: 1,802
    I just wanted to let everyone know that the game has been sold.

    Its sad to see it go, but im happy for the new owner, as I think she will bring it some great success which is what I wanted to see all along. A great game such as this one deserves some great recognition. I think some great features can be added to it as newer versions of gamesalad come along. I sold it because I didn't have time to work on it, and I would of had to rush its release, which I didn't want to happen. The new owner seems very enthusiastic about it and has some great plans, and I wish her the best of luck with it.

    I will discuss with her in regards to making an awesome falldown type template for you guys.

    Thanks!
