    Wow, yeah it looks like we're starting to take over lol. Too bad they rejected my update today :( Hey if you guys want to vote for the nicer looking reviews at the bottom (click on it was helpful) it would be great. Thanks!

    I too got rejected today
    I my app had " poo" in the name referring to poop.
    Never would have thought the word poo was innapropriate

    They must be in a bad mood
    case of the Mondays I guess

    anyways I just updated my review since it was still from 1.0

    Is there anything special to do to get in that section ?
    Is it ratings ?
    Reviews?

    Or just some love from the apple staff...
  • CrazybreadmanCrazybreadman Member Posts: 674
    Congrats Butterbean! Doodle Crash is on the charts... somwhere around 50 in the kids section :)
  • CrazybreadmanCrazybreadman Member Posts: 674
    Fun random fact... In Armenia Traffic Ninja is #19 in action and #40 overall apps. Wonder why it is so popular there lol. (random fact brought to you by appfigures.com)

    Congratulations guys
  • mrfunkleberrymrfunkleberry Member Posts: 424
    Yay! well done butterbean! played your game nice work!
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    Thanks! I had a bug that I'm trying to expedite, but other than that, this was purely a casual game for kids

    Can't wait to see sales reports tomorrow, I'll let you know how it goes :)

    @Crazybreadman: That's too funny that your app in Armenia is so popular, it's fun to see what apps top which countries just like Tshirts photohunter was really popular in Thailand, turns out they have photohunter games in malls that they all love to play there :)

    Well done guys! Glad to see your games are getting the attention they deserve.
  • CrazybreadmanCrazybreadman Member Posts: 674
    Thanks lazypixel and other who gave congrats :)
    @butterbean- Yeah that's funny and also cool. The global aspect of the app store is pretty interesting. Like for instance I've been getting foreign review requests from Russia, Poland and whatnot. As far as charts in the US I've been hovering in the low 100's so I'm going to try switching from action/arcade (highly competitive) to Family/Kids. I think it fits in with those categories also.
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    I agree CrazyBreadMan :) Sticking to the kids and family genre is key, as it's easier to stay in the top 100 apps versus competing with the action genre that will kill you in a day!

    On another note, some punk kid left a review (sorry, he sounded like it) that the controls were laggy and unresponsive. I myself didn't experience this on my 3G iphone, and neither did people who tested it out, but wanted to know if you experienced this at all?

    I need to go back, look at it and retest it. In some of the bigger boss levels, the game had some minor lag, but nothing that I thought was terrible!

    So let me know what you think!

    I know as a developer you get tunnel vision, and I just want to get another perspective :)
  • CrazybreadmanCrazybreadman Member Posts: 674
    @Butterbean- I tried playing it on a 1g and it was even fine on that. I think some people expect every game to play as smoothly as doodle jump but I'm not sure if that kind of smoothness and quick loading time is possible on Gamesalad yet. So I would see if any improvement can be made, but probably it's just someone being picky and wanting to complain.
  • butterbeanbutterbean Member Posts: 4,315
    Thanks, people are so harsh and I always laugh when they say "waste of .99c"

    What, you can make your car payment now b/c you spent a buck on a game?

    geez! :)
  • CrazybreadmanCrazybreadman Member Posts: 674
    So what kind of DL's did you guys get? Mine was 54 for Traffic Ninja yesterday, so a definite improvement. Hopefully it will keep up :)
  • mrfunkleberrymrfunkleberry Member Posts: 424
    freakie same here. Expecting double bubble tomorrow.

    Well done guys, your games look fantastic! Keep up the good work
  • CrazybreadmanCrazybreadman Member Posts: 674
    Thanks Mark, and is Goin' Nutty doing pretty well?
  • KempProductionsKempProductions Member Posts: 139
    Does a game only stay in the New and Noteworthy for a week?
  • synthesissynthesis Member Posts: 1,693
    Even less I think. I haven't been able to tell exactly how long...I think its up to Apple.
