Dummy Fall Free is a retro style game in which the objective is to shoot down the falling dummies from an airplane crash. The game has a high score system implemented in it, so that players can compete to see who gets the biggest score. All of the art in the game (pixel art lol) has been created by me and the sound effects are all copyright free. Of course, for people who don't like ads and wish to support me, the paid version without ads is waiting for review. Thanks for reading and please write down any feedback you wish to give me in the comments!

Looks like fun ! I love the simplistic 8bit style !
But a small word of caution . . .
I'd time the release of this one so as not to offend too many people, with quite a few prominent passenger plane calamities making the news over the last couple of years the idea of bodies falling from the sky is always a bit of a risk (obvioulsy don't release it the day of a major crash!
) . . . but even more relevant to your theme of people falling from the sky over Egypt (Pyramids = Egypt) is that it may well be misconstrued as poor taste given than only a couple of months back two hundred and twenty four people lost their lives in a plane disaster over Egypt !! (Russian / Metrojet Flight 9268). On Oct 31st 2014 there really were corpses falling from the sky over Egypt !
Maybe I'm being over cautious, but it'd be a pity to see your hard work wasted if it were to be rejected by Apple on grounds of taste, because from the look of it it's probably a lot of fun !!! Don't take this as a criticism, it's just an observation, good luck !
Holy !@#$% you are right, I completely forgot about that. I just used the pyramids because I thought they were a good background for the game (earlier it was a beach but it looked horrible). I'll be more careful for my next games, thanks for the feedback!
I suppose this kind of thing is always going to be an issue for game making when our main stock in trade is guns and bombs and planes and shooting and killing and general mayhem ! But like I say, good luck with the game !
UPDATE: Dummy Fall (Paid version) is now live. (If you wish to support me as indie developer).
Post a link. Thanks
