Here's our trailer! Sorry for the long wait. This is all we can show for now, there will be more extended gameplay footage when the game is ready to launch so you guys can take a good look and decide whether it's worth your hard earned buck or two http://youtu.be/mVYsodcib6w
Since you guys were great enough to answer me quickly and directly on twitter, I just wanted to go ahead and throw my name in the hat for if you guys ever do beta testing I'd definitely love to help because your game looks awesome and I'd love to be a part of it. Twitter name same as my username here - cskimbrell Looking really forward to supporting you guys in the future! Keep the updates coming!
Hadn't seen this thread yet, and I'm glad I found it now. This looks great, really solid, and I'm looking forward to trying this one out as soon as possible. I like the concept and graphics a lot. Hope to see it soon!
About the price: I'd pay up to 2.99 (3.99$) easily - as long as there aren't IAPs needed to complete the game. Optional IAPs are ok. But to have the most impact - and not crossing a "feared" price treshold - this game should be priced at 1.99$.This will at least ensure a lot of impulse buys. Or you do an intro sale for the early asopters.
For all that you hold dear, the age of freemium will be soon upon us. But it is is not this day, this day we pay! Sound the bankers in the streets, let no coin be held back, let no pound or dollar be stolen. This is still the age of value for money so let this cry ring out! That's good I should make that my signature. I tried to do it in a 3916 style hope you appreciate it... Free-mium games are never value for money with one or two exceptions at most in the last 5 years. Id pay 69p for this but if it was free I would let it clog up the app store along with everything else. Game play looks promising, don't spoil that and don't give yourselves a bad reputation, 99% fermium games gives companies bad rep further along the line at some point or another. All personal opinion but really from observation...
I am with the folks here who dislike freemium and are glad to pay up front for quality games. I would likely pay the premium price for it, as long as it is not an IAP driven game. If it is an IAP type game, I have no interest whatsoever. Unfortunately, the realities of the IOS market may lead you to other paths :-(
We've been quiet lately, which is good because we've been super busy coming up with fun quests and stories for the game. There's no fixed release date yet but it'll be before the summer for sure. In case you haven't seen it, Toucharcade got a look at the game during GDC: http://toucharcade.com/2012/03/13/gdc-2012-a-look-at-tiny-sheep-and-pocket-minions/
Okay, so there's a bit of a wait left before the game is released. The way I figure it, summer is 2.5 months away and you said "before summer" so that gives you 2.4 months to release the game. I guess that means you'll just have to make me a beta tester cuz I think if I wait 2.4 months I may lose my mind and be reduced to a vegetative state by then. So how about it? Shoot me a beta copy and I'll help you make sure it's flawless when you release Q
PM me your testflight email and I"ll make sure you get priority consideration when we start inviting beta testers
