Hi guys, I'm not sure if these 2 articles been posted here, (I hate using the search feature on this forum, it doesn't work well for me).
http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/39653/Money_and_the_App_Store_A_few_figures_that_might_help_an_indie_developer.php
http://www.streamingcolour.com/blog/2011/09/28/results-ios-game-revenue-survey/

We all want to achieve those great looking revenues from teh app stores be it iOS or Android. I hope this will give you an idea and also some inspiration.

As for me being an indie for a year ++ now, I must say I'm enjoying it thoroughly. More positives than negatives. Here's looking forward to another good year for 2012!

    here's a vid that I like from Will Smith...

    it don't matter if your talented. What matters is the skill...and the crazy amount of effort beating on your craft till you get to that highest point that you want.
    This is very very true. Just look at some of the successful guys here using GS. Keep trying and keep working folks!

    Good food for thought, thanks for sharing. Gamasutra is a great site for game design articles.
    @Izam Curious, by the looks of your icon can I assume you made Cataline Kitty?

    @Pixelgun yes I made that Cataline Kitty last year :D

    @Izam Nicely done! I love the graphics, the fabric and hand sewn look. The game play is fun too, the whole thing is very well done. Did you make that with GameSalad?

    Thanks @Pixelgun ! yup all my games are done using GS. It's the fastest game dev platform I've ever used!
