Hey everyone, I just thought I would update this thread. We're still busy working away on GamePress. We're coming closer to releasing it. We are now looking for even more people to try out GamePress... So I would like to announce a small contest. This is a contest for beta testers, so message me to sign up as a tester!

When the contest will begin and how long is that? I'm interest to sign up, but I'll be busy till July 4. Can't resist with this one... Signed up.. I'll use my weekend for playing this
Contest will start within the next few days. Once we get some more people on board for testing. As for the end date, it will most likely be end of june or early july. It depends on how many people we get on board!
I want to sign up for the beta, but I need to get something cleared up, is this a universal app or iPad exclusive.
It is an iPad exclusive. Plan is to have the GamePress arcade available for iPhone as well, but that is only to play games not make them. We're also planning on releasing for Android, but right now our focus is the iPad.
This is an awesome idea. Once RPGs can be done I'll be very interested. I hope long term you have plans for more modern graphics too. Have you thought about offering network stuff down the line? That'd be huge.
New and better graphics are very high on the priority list. One thing we also want to implement down the road is an in app shop where users can buy and sell artwork, music, and other game assets. This way if you're an awesome artist you can sell your stuff right through GamePress. But this is a little further down the todo list As for network stuff do you mean multiplayer? Multiplayer is tricky to make easy. It would definitely be amazing to have it, but making it seamless and easy for the end user will be difficult. Something that requires a lot of R&D on our part... But it is something we're constantly thinking about
Yep, send me a PM with your email and I will send you an invite. Also I should note, iPad 1 is not supported. iPad 2,3,4,mini only.
Looks awesome, any idea when it is released? Im going to put cool ideas on this app . Question: Do we get to put our own characters in the game that we draw on your app? So we can't copy and paste.
Not sure if I should reply here or send you an email but I can't get the interactive tutorial working, when the app starts it says do you want the tutorial and before I have time to click anything that app crashes then when you open it again you can use the app normally but there's no tutorial. Seems its something to do with the Facebook login as when I pressed don't login in its working now.
We'll be doing a soft launch in select app store in a few weeks to test our platform and make sure its ready for a large launch.. Don't have a date when it will be available globally, but it will be very soon. As for importing. You can import custom graphics. So if you make them on your computer, find them online or how ever else, you can import them and use them within GamePress. If your interested you can PM me your email and I'll add you to the beta. You will have access for the next build. Got your feedback trough testflight. For others please submit feedback through testflightapp.com Thanks!
