    I can't think of anything reasons why they didn't feature your game on app store. My best guess is the loading time on iPhones. This may affecting their considerations for featuring your game.

    Downloaded! @kirafu, You've been an insperation for years on this project! I remember when you first announced you left your job to make this game and how you would babysit your child while working on it. Best of luck to you. Thank you.

    I would go on the touch arcade forums and hand out some codes to get people talking about it more, do it soon, it's an awesome community that really wants to help others get games noticed. If you wanted to PM me a couple codes I could send them to a couple guys I know who help promote games. (No worries if you'd rather do it yourself

    Also I noticed Apple have been handling their features a little different. Adding titles throughout the week, and not as many keeping about half the previous weeks games on the list. Hopefully yours can get added

    i don't think its loading times, i pretty much download most featured games each week and most have loading of some sort and some even want to download more data! i promptly delete those apps though, really winds me up,

    i think most features are based on a combination of news on websites, twitter and forums, the apple reviewer liking your game and downloads within the first few week, a game can be featured many weeks after launch as its not really based on release date!

    @kirafu You'll like this... I downloaded Roll Turtle to my iPad, played rated and reviewed in the AU store in the morning then waited. Later in the day I checked for the review... nothing? I checked in the evening from my iMac... still nothing? I guessed my review didn't stick. So I wrote another one and submitted it.

    Yesterday afternoon I checked the App Store again and both my ratings and reviews are there! Two for the price of one, ha ha. :D

    My App Store avatar is the same on both, RicoRicoAU, so I assume the reviewer didn't notice or Apple just use a "SwearBot" to check for inappropriate words.

    Come On Aussie GS Developers, come on, give Kirafu a rating and review. Once he has five reviews they'll show the 5* rating.

    @gamestudent @jay2dx @onelasttime @PhilipCC
    thank you guys, I am grateful for your support, I saw TouchArcade you post and talk about it, It is very useful, now Roll Turtle is Touch Arcadr "Hot Games" #7, I don't know why, but if get #1 or #2, maybe can cause apple attention, thank you.

    @RossmanBrothersGames sure, I need your help and thank you, I'll pm you.

    @PhilipCC thank you very much, I had noticed this, Yesterday. Read these review really touch my heart, thank you like Roll Turtle and share your love.

  • jay2dxjay2dx Member Posts: 611

    One piece of advise I would give you is get working on an update with a few new levels or something! Updates are great if people can see your supporting the game past launch, maybe one more new world!

    @jay2dx thanks for your suggestion, I'll try, Roll Turtle just release 5 days ago, maybe after a few months later, and I saw most player not yet finish all level of Roll Turtle now. It still has a lot of fun things hidden waiting to be discovered, I hid a lot of secret in there, some surprises waiting to be discovered :smile:

    Finally had some spare time to give this a go. I am blown away. Its absolutely amazing. Every detail, the animation. Way to go.
    I am just disappointed that GS loading times are causing an issue for you. Not really much you can do about it though.
    Best of luck with updates, and I look forward to continuing my way through each level.
