I'm excited to announce that Crevice is being featured by Apple in the "Hot New Games" section of the iPhone App Store!

I have never had a game featured before so this is exciting! It's my first game by GameSalad!

Make sure to check it out when you get a chance. :)

    Congrats Johncc. But I cant find it? Is it under "What's Hot"?

    Its under the "Hot New Games" in the App Store.

    Go to the App Store on your device > In the top Left of the "Featured" Section is the "Hot New Games" section. It's right in there.

    Did you "make bank" as Daniel hoped? Not really looking for $ but could you contrast the per day volume (or a relational percentage) before, during, and after being featured? TIA

    I second rebump's request. Not need any business details. Just wondering what your experience was pre- and post- featured.

    Congrats!

    I had a game in that same section for a week (it's not featured anymore) and it went from 2-5 sales a day up to 25-30 a during the week that it was featured as a hot new game. Since being featured it has dropped down again.

    Can you tell me if you were notified by Apple that they were doing this?

    How long did it stay there?

    Did you do anything prior to getting on that list/page?

    Xmas 2097 (http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/xmas-2097/id344952368?mt=8) went onto the app store on December 23rd. Since then, it's been downloaded, for free, about 500 times.

    It actually sold more on a day to day basis *after* Xmas than before it, and this, I reckon, is thanks to it being in the top 100/top 200 in over 10 countries.

    Once your app is featured, be it in 'what's hot' or in a top category, people can find it far easier. The exposure essentially means you'll sell a hell of a lot more than if people are having to look for it.

    Your app, unless featured, is like the proverbial needle in a haystack!

    Obvious really! :).
