    Maybe just put ads in it? To keep the freebie goodness coming

    iad or trying kiip or playhaven?

    You could do both Playhaven and iAds, Playhaven takes a long while before you get any info, but iAds you know right away. Kiip is great to tie into achievements, giving players added incentives to play the game. So I guess you could actually do all 3. The only caveat is that iAds is more intrusive and would interrupt the flow of the gameplay, so best case scenario is do both Playhaven and Kiip. Hope this helps.

    First look at your game i would say kids are your market don't charge yet and no i ads playhaven then it will show them games they can download. But if you get bigger then go back to payed, keep us informed on total downloads. Thats my 2 cents.

    Thank you

    Wow good effort. I wouldn't have changed it to paid though, you may have had more success by keeping the app as it is free, and building some new games and levels for it and charging for them through IAP, since you already have a fair user base to build on.

    I love the changes that you did to the art, I think it made a big difference. I remember your old post and it seems that you implemented most of the suggestions that were made.

    Well done!

    Ah, that makes sense.

    I purchased the game and played it for a little bit, but the constant changing of scenes was really bugging me. The loading wheel was popping up like every 10 seconds :( Also, when I beat a level, I have to go all the way to the menu (loading wheel), then click the next level (another loading wheel). Also, when I fail, a scene switched (yet another wheel).

    I would recommend programming the ending level scene into the level scene. It might be some extra work, but the end result will be so much nicer. Despite of that, I'm glad you're getting a bunch of downloads! :D
