Yes I am crazy, and yes I set Floris to 99c again. But sales dropped too hard yesterday with price increase so I'm doing what I can to share this with the masses... https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/floris/id622369148?mt=8 Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel Main thread is here - comments there encouraged.. http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=185801&highlight=floris Anyhow my insanity is yours to be exploited. It's worth 5x the price for the music alone. And on that note it pains me that the genius who wrote the Floris music (Billy Sheeran) is unable to enjoy the game because he has no iOS hardware. He's an "old school" kinda guy - rocks a flip phone and barely knows what a Twitter is, but let's move enough copies to buy him an iPad, ok? I'm dying to hear what he could do with some of those iPad synths and GarageBand.. Take a spin with Floris now.
y FYI Im sure most of you know but the price change can take an hour or two to populate the store... sit tight.

I really think there is a lot for you to like here. I'm committed to listening to feedback and making this the best game possible for a long time to come. Thanks for checking it out. gquiller Well-Known Member Nov 15, 2011 330 3 18 #6 gquiller, Apr 30, 2013 And you drop the price again! Ugh! grillaface Well-Known Member Apr 1, 2013 112 0 0 Richmond VA #7 grillaface, Apr 30, 2013 Hey gguiller forgive me, are you offended by the price? It offends me a little, the price, because IMHO it's worth way more than $1: There are no ads, IAP, or gotchas of any sort, and above all the game is interesting, unique, engaging, challenging, beautiful, and fun.. I understand if you bought it for $3.99, $2.99, $1.99 - but come on we're talking about less than I tip a bartender for pouring me a beer... I want as many people to play this as possible, and even if I don't think it's a fair measure of the value, the $1 price point moves the most copies. I'm an indie, I'm a newb, and I'm learning things as I go. So please forgive me I'm not trying to be unfair to anyone - I just want people to give Floris a chance and this price seems to be the best way to do it. And I say this with utmost respect and humility - my customers are my most important assets. gquiller Well-Known Member Nov 15, 2011 330 3 18 #8 gquiller, Apr 30, 2013 Bottom line is that it's a good game & my apologies on the knee jerk reaction. You deserve success & to not understand is on me! grillaface Well-Known Member Apr 1, 2013 112 0 0 Richmond VA #9 grillaface, Apr 30, 2013 <3 <3 Thanks gquiller That means an incredible amount to me. An aside, and I posted this in the main thread, but does anyone know why Floris doesn't appear in the AppShopper new/updates/price drop list? I can search and find it but it's never one of the main titles in the list. Not complaining, just wondering if there was something I was supposed to do to register it there. Thanks again y'all. Royce Well-Known Member Mar 22, 2011 4,239 179 63 #10 Royce, Apr 30, 2013 Appshopper pulls data directly from the AppStore so there's no need to register or anything. It's usually well behind the action which is why many people prefer other services for up to the minute or even ahead of time notifications of AppStore activity. grillaface Well-Known Member Apr 1, 2013 112 0 0 Richmond VA #11 grillaface, Apr 30, 2013 Ok gotcha thx tedytjandera Well-Known Member Dec 25, 2012 72 0 0 #12 tedytjandera, May 1, 2013 Bill wins! Buying this solely because of him! iamseamonster Well-Known Member Mar 8, 2010 214 0 0 #13 iamseamonster, May 1, 2013 If you like good games then get this right now. If you don't buy this game it means you sniff farts - ON PURPOSE bsheeran New Member Apr 27, 2013 4 0 0 #14 bsheeran, May 1, 2013 Well shucks Tedyt....much appreciated!!! Pocketnova Well-Known Member Oct 15, 2012 2,346 0 0 #15 Pocketnova, May 1, 2013 Haha, same! Lets hope he gets his iPad Great game so far as well! grillaface Well-Known Member Apr 1, 2013 112 0 0 Richmond VA #16 grillaface, May 1, 2013 Thanks for the comments guys, and especially for supporting Billy. I'm definitely gonna be making more games and I'm definitely going to make use of his genius again but I hope we can launch a career for him as a game / film composer. We're releasing an EP of the soundtrack soon and I'm going to start chatting him up for a Grammy. Hey if Journey can do it why not Floris Truly I think it's remarkable. But to get Billy an iPad we gotta loooong way to go.. With this $1 price point and assume the base model iPad: $500 / $0.70 => 714 units which is more than we've sold so far in two weeks... Basically if you like Floris, tell a friend, chat it up on the forums, like the FB page, whateva, we got a long way to go. Again I appreciate all the support and encouragement; I can't tell you how good it makes me feel that people are enjoying it.

AND SO IS FLORIS Get it already PyleStyle Member Apr 26, 2013 22 0 1 Santa Barbara, CA #20 PyleStyle, May 2, 2013 How is the Floris experience on the full size iPad? I've almost exclusively played on my mini, with the exception of a few times I've played on the iPod 5th gen. I like the mini the best with the larger screen to experience all the action, but I feel like a full size iPad might be far to reach with those opposable thumbs!
