Greetings, toucharcaders! My first game went live in the app store this morning, it's called Space Harvest, you can find out more on the website at http://spaceharvest.com ! It's an RTS game with a crazy plot and fun retro graphics and sound effects. App store link: itms://itunes.apple.com/us/app/space-harvest/id348795059?mt=8 Some promo codes, just for you: H3K674J99AP6 9R47EJNJYFYF TMWJW44WXP4F 4MY3RM4RXE6R MLWAK3MFMNKR As I mentioned, this is my first game, so I'd be very grateful for any feedback! Ben
Ben, No offense, the game looks interesting and I was ready to risk a buck or two on it, but for a first game at $6 AUD and no lite you're in for an uphill battle.
Hi Gabrien I guess that pricing was always going to be tricky... I think it offers a good few hours of gameplay, but I'll see how it goes, my thinking is I can always bring the price down later on. Best! Ben
GAHHHH! You realise by saying that, most people here will hold off on buying this now until the price drops?! Just looked at the site - this game looks REALLY sweet. How many missions are there? Any plans for multiplayer at all? Cheers, Jamie.
Lol, maybe I'll bring the price down in future, but I didn't say when ... There are 7 missions. I hope to add more missions + units soon with a free update. Multiplayer is a possibility, but no promises... Best! Ben
Well, the question is really how the game plays. If you had a "lite" the current price would be just fine. I am just saying I won't risk $6 on a completely unknown game from an unproven developer. And I doubt many others will. The reason I am commenting at all, is actually because the game DOES look good. I think you've just put yourself behind the eight ball with the pricing/no lite. I'll look forward to giving this a shot if a lite is released or if there's a price cut. Best to you too.
Sure, and I appreciate you taking the time to provide advice, I'm obviously new to the whole app store thing. I would certainly consider doing a light version at some point. For now, I figure I've got nothing to lose by trying a higher price, it's not like I have a reputation to throw away... If you like RTS games, IMO 3 quid is not that much money for this game. There are certainly cheaper RTS games available, but choice is good! I hope SH offers something a bit different. Thanks! Ben
I like the look of it, but I'm going to wait for some impressions first. The price seems fine imo, 3 pounds isn't much at all - i mean retail of a standard ds/psp game here is going to be 10 times that.
AHHHH... the original guy said something like 7 or 8 dollars - I didn't realize it was Ozzie play-money ;-) 2.99 is pretty fair... Promise me it'll stay at that price for two weeks and I'll buy it now ;-) Jamie.
Wow! Looks great! I've added this to my iTunes Wishlist ! I'll be snagging it as soon as I get another iTunes gift card . Looks pretty sweet!
Looks really interesting, love the art style.. Would like to try it out, shame those promo codes only work on the US store and not UK.
do you have a video of the game? ... just found it on your website it looks awesome btw all codes are gone
Yes, there's one on the website home page: http://spaceharvest.com If it isn't playing for you, here are some direct links: http://asicloud.s3.amazonaws.com/trailer.mp4 (Chrome, Safari, Quicktime) http://asicloud.s3.amazonaws.com/trailer.ogv (Firefox) There's a flash one on youtube, but the quality is rubbish: http://www.youtube.com/user/spaceharvest#p/a/u/0/_W_LrlYGsoc
