@Sing_Team_Productions, I think that person is lucky and good at marketing too, just my opinion.

Right I could learn a thing or two from that person!

I went to the Marketplace to have a quick look at your original template and was reminded how absolutely awful the GS Marketplace is ! ) Am I right in thinking that you can't even search for an asset, even if you know what is it called ? That you need to scroll through thousands of assets in the hope that you might spot the one you are after

@Socks there's a link in his signature to his templates which includes http://gshelper.com/shop/core-controls/red-ball-template/

BIG_THINKIN_APPS

Google the name of the app and you will find lots of links to self review sites like where you put in your app info and with an account to the site.

Search: red bouncing ball spikes

This is odd!

Ok, cheers, I didn't spot that, my mistake.

Actually what I said about the GS Marketplace was completely wrong, the GS marketplace does in fact have a search function, but if you are using Safari then the search function is broken.

same game but different creator.

TouchiMedia

Was it really created with Gamesalad ?

Why would you doubt it? As stated above it comes Via the GShelper template.

Doing a search on the second persons name "Mateen Pekan" it seems a lot of scam warning pop up even on touch arcade..I smell something fishy.. not sure if "Louis Leidenfrost" is related.

edit:

thought I'd seen name before he's mentioned on Gamesalad forums as a scammer also.

Well, scammer or not - he's currently got a top 10 game in about 15 countries, so somehow he is shifting a lot of games! very interesting...

So I received an email message yesterday with the same offer as in the link above, stating that I could buy 200 iOS source codes, etc.

It was sent to my personal email address, not the one I use for my forums account. I think the connection is that I use my personal address for my GSHelper account. Or maybe he bought a template and somehow accessed my email address through PayPal? Hate to be paranoid but it l seems very strange.
