Hey everybody, I ended getting GameSalad less then 3 weeks ago. It was originally going to learn ios and had my objective C books and tutorials all ready. Then I some how stumbled across game salad. I wasn't really thinking of games for app concepts but I saw the Doc Indie game and was inspired. Then I found GameSalad and I figured I had some time, so why not try it out for a few hours.
Having a design background and understanding the concepts around coding. I picked it up fast. After a few days i realized i could actually build my own platform. I ended up going crazy, since i freelance i dropped everything and just dived in. After 2 weeks i have a platform game nearly done. Im asking friends now to help me test.
Touching up the art work and adding the story to the game now. This is awesome! I added tons of features to the game and looking back I am amazed how much I managed to get done.
The game has 20 HUGE side scrolling levels and 8 bosses, bosses that change size and have life bars.
4 different worlds with 4 styles of platform jump puzzles.
The part i like most is i used a custom platform engine opposed to the one in the template.
I'm hoping to have it submitted to apple for review in the new 3 days.
Trying to figure out the launch strategy, I want to launch as a 99 cent game then change it to free with IAP to unlock continue and saves after 3 months and I'll add the usual platform IAP's like level skip and unlock all levels.
I've had so many projects go no where, its nice to be in control and just get one done finally!
It's kinda surreal! lol I'll produce a game in less then a month!

Looks like a cool game.
Also would like to add, that you cannot include IAP. As only pro members can use those. Just so you know from the start.
