    If it's not a problem you have come across elsewhere then the chances are it could just be 'user stupidity' or an ios 4 iphone 3g with too much running in the background. Personally i'd ignore those comments as the good ones will keep rolling in. Look at every popular game and they have at least 5 or 6 comments that say 'meh.. doesn't work!'.

    *edit* can't multi-task on a 3g, oops. Unless it's jailbroken

    Exactly. I have one guy stating "constantly crashes". Well, it doesn't. USER ERROR. Get your phone fixed! lol.

    And hope your dog is okay!

    I've seen a lot of people post on this thread saying they bought the game, if those people could post a positive review for utopian I'm sure it would help balance out those two people who are having some difficulties. Would hate to see something stupid like that have a say on his sales! Post a review people! Show some GS love!

    Hey mate, I'll take one and create a "free" US account... but will it let me download again? Email me anyway, you have my addy :)

    Negative reviews rarely have an impact on sales, most people will buy a game if they really want it, and not everyone reads reviews.

    Left you a positive 5 star review! I really loved this game!

    Were getting a few PC sales of the original as a result of the iPhone, cant remember the last time we sold a Bumps from our site.

    6 more ranks up and you'll be visible on the top 50 on devices! That's where the real cash is at!

    did bumps make your other games up?
  • UtopianGamesUtopianGames Member Posts: 5,692
    Not really although i have updated 4 of them to advertise Bumps with a splash here and there in the other games.

    Might do another freebee with those games soon.

    Bought this last night and my wife and I are having a lot of fun with it. Glad to see it having so much success! You've made enough quality apps, Im glad to see you have a chart topper :)

    Hey, Eastbound, how's Asplosion doing? I just completed the main mode. Awesome game ;)

    By tomorrow you'll have enough to buy a pro license!

    I would think about converting all your other games to bumps marketing tools

    @UtopianGames:

    You could put a screenshot that appears first under each of your other games that Markets "Bumps" to get more coverage

    Great job!

    I'm not a huge fan of puzzlers as they are one of my least favorite genres, and I think a lot of them can become redundant, but I must say, this is making me rethink this genre! Incredibly fun, and addictive, NOT redundant at all, and the graphics and music are soooo cute and really fit the mood of the game. It was as if the music just came with the graphics :)
  • AfterBurnettAfterBurnett Member Posts: 3,474
    HOW MUCH TO PUT A LINK TO MAX VECTOR WHEN YOU GO PRO?!?!?!?! Hahaha.

    My sentiments exactly! The problem with puzzlers is that there are too many of them and most of them average at best. Which, in a way, helps people like Darren as when you make a good one, BOY DOES IT STAND OUT!!! Look at Angry Birds. I actually prefer Bumps and it doesn't slow down like a dog, like AB does after a while!

    Been thinking about the pro situation a lot and even though its looking like we could afford it in a few days if things stay the same i don't think i can warrant $2k every year for a custom splash and url forwarding.

    Even if pro had a million features its still too expensive, looking around unity springs to mind, still pricey but its a one off payment.

    If GS pro was $2k and a one off payment then yes of course i would but every year?!? honestly i don't think pro is worth $500 a year never mind $2k.

    Just my 2 pennies worth on pro and hey if i can do it with express you guys can too!

    I would go the other way, utopian has other really good apps that haven't gotten the attention they deserve. Make a screenshot promoting the others on the Bumps page.

    If you speak nicely I might let you use my Unity license. Can be on two machines and I'm not using it at the mo... I will though but until then it might as well get some use!!!
