Super 7 submitted

I submitted my third game to Apple last friday. Super 7 is currently ‘Waiting for review’ and I hope it will be available in the iTunes App Store later this week.

Green Fingers submitted!

I finally finished my second game today! Green Fingers is done and submitted to apple. It is sort of my third game actually because I have another game in development that is about 70% finished.

A couple of weeks ago I decided to put the game I was working on hold to make a small and simple game in between. Green Fingers is the result of that decision. It will be available in the iTunes App Store very soon for a measly 99 cents. Click here for more details.

So now that this one is out of the gate I think I’ll spend a couple of days contemplating my next move. Do I continue the other game right away or do I start prototyping something completely new?

I’ll keep you posted!

Reviews

So with all the holiday stuff behind us, reviews for Alphabetic are starting to appear on-line. Here are a couple of reviews and other articles that mention Alphabetic from the last couple of days:

TouchArcade.com

SlideToPlay.com

AppsAndGames.com

RazorianFly.com

AppVersity.com

People are even posting movies on Youtube about Alphabetic. I love the one below that is set to (totally unrelated) heavy rock music. Very cool! Maybe I should add music like this in a future update ;)

Critical responds so far

It looks like the iPhone gamers out there are digging Alphabetic a lot. The feedback has been extremely positive so far. I’ve added a couple of the early responses to the Alphabetic page.

As soon as iTunes connect opens up again I’m going to add these to the app description in the app store as well to see if that influences sales at all. iTunes connect (for the uninitiated) is the site I have to use to update my apps, unfortunately it is closed until the 28th.

As for official press coverage, a couple of days ago iPhoneclub.nl wrote a nice article about Alphabetic and that has helped sales along a bit as well (in the Netherlands and Belgium at least). My next goal is to try to persuade a couple of bigger American sites to mention Alphabetic ;)

Alphabetic submitted!

Alphabetic 1.0.0 is done! A couple of minutes ago I finished uploading the game and all the corresponding meta data to Apple. So it is now officially “In Review” as they call it.

I’ve entered a 19 December release date but I doubt the game will be released on that date ;) But, with a little cooperation from Apple, it looks like I might just make my original “Lauch a game this year”-deadline!

New No Monkeys web site

Presto! Welcome to the new No Monkeys site. I’ve finally got around to look into RapidWeaver a bit this weekend and cooked up this small site for No Monkeys.

It was long overdue since the first No Monkeys game (Alphabetic) is almost finished and I’ll probably submit it to Apple later this week (I’ve got a couple of small bugs to fix and small tweaks to make first). So hopefully it will be available at the iPhone App Store right before Christmas.

Watch this space...
