My game save cubes for ipad, was forgot... Somedays it stilk gets download, and my free game save cubes for iphone, is getting less and less downloads, day after day... Maybe if i put my paid game for free for somedays, and change after some days, it will get some downloads... And what about the free game? What can i do?

    I dont think updates help your position on release date or anything. I would love to know what to do to raise my game back up. I have currently increases the price to do a price drop in a couple days and see if it gains any sales from the tracking apps.

    Will let you know if that helps any

    Release a new free version with limited themed for St. Patricks day and advertise the full version in it.
    Hey ... it worked for Angry Birds with Angry Birds Holiday. Wait... Angry Birds never dropped down. How about cut the rope when they released their holiday ... no doubt it. Still it can't hurt, especially if it is a level-based game and easy to create new levels.

    The problem is that, even the Free game is dying. I tought it was going to be success, because it was free, and I really think it is a good game....

    It got over 500 downloads on the first day, than about 900 on the second day, then about 400 on the tird, and only +- 170 yesterday...

    And according to the iads stats, today was going to be worst... So, what can I do?

    Maybe one of the problems was a 2 stars review, somebody saying that the sounds are horrenduos...

    Maybe you can get some opinions...

    Its free, download it here.

    I just raised the price for Assault Commando 2 weeks ago to 2.99 and every week I dropped $1

    It helped to go up.

    You need to be sure, the price doesn't change at least 5 days, because appshopper (the most popular site) shows your price drop only, if it was the same at least 5 days.

    I changed the price always on the 7th day.
    It went up from 980 to 290 during this time. Now it is $0.99 and still raising.
    When the download numbers start to decrease, I will raise the price again to 2.99 or even 3.99

    Making it free won't help.
    I made Assault Commando free for a day. I got 70.000(!) downloads. The next day with $0.99 I got 20 downloads again.

    If nothing helps, make it free and step over it. Make a new game.
