Chule Wants a Cookie!

[giggsy]

I highly recommend reading the gamesfromwithin blog, like http://gamesfromwithin.com/making-a-living-comfortably-on-the-app-store =)

IAP is actually a must have!
E.g.: marketingwise, you got to go free for 24h to 3 days and thus you earn nothing.
With IAP, you still earn something via IAP

Hey congrats! Downloading it right now!

here's a paper cow to celebrate ^^

Excellent! Will print it for my children

[cgvinny]

Congrats !

just bought it...

but

unable to play on Iphone 3G : it closes and go back to the apps menu while trying to load the levels view.

a suggestion : you splash screen is on landscape view while the screen is in portrait view... You should adapt your splashscreen IMO.

Hope to ba able to play it soon

Hi cgvinnyy thx for getting it ^^ bu woah, it worries me you couldn't play it, it happened to me too on my testing devices, did u try restarting the os? Please let me know, I'll be checking out for a solution , maybe I'm preloading too much

[cgvinny]

did u try restarting the os?

Yes I tried to reload it but it doesn't work on Iphone 3G.

By the way, you really have to follow people with your Twitter account, or nobody will know you and your app

[fzuleta]

cgvinny ^^ checking that on twitter, gonna work on it haha thx!

I'm also preparing an update, should be ready for next week, where im compressing and reducing the size of the images, trying to get the game under 20mb, hopefully this will make it work for 3G (the only problem is I dont have a 3G testing device, i only have Ipad and 3GS) but maybe the simulator will do the trick ^^

I also have a little ad ready to go for 4 days (this weekend) on reddit.com hopefully its a good idea

thanks

Plans for android? The artwork isn't bad, but the gameplay looks really average =/

Mode troll on : could you develop a bit ? I don't find the gameplay average at all. it's easy to use, yes, but it could be really deep and offers a lot possibilities IMO.

edit : OK no need to answer. Just remembered your introduction post. you are the 15 years old genius with no social skill . I won't understand you answer (I am as average as the Chule gameplay )

[fzuleta]

hello
hahaha thx Cgvinny ^^ cool

Dany0: yep I do have plans for the Android, but cant get all the packages to make Shiva-Android work together under parallels ^^' (the 'make' thing is driving me crazy)

as a little leak on what im working on for next world, is to first add multiple 'boards' in one level that you can jump to, and add one enemy (I was thinking to add a little lake with a fish, that actually eats chule if he gets too close haha (maybe its a little aggresive but, gotta try it to see.

today i realized 2 things I'd like to share [this is just how I feel]:

learn to hear your project, it knows where it wants to go... ur just the conductor

its hard stuff to make it fun and enjoyable, I found myself redoing e...very...thing... all over again many times [showing it and being open to harsh critique from two people I trust really helped, I annoyed them a lot!], would u guys believe that this game started with the idea of making a game where u spit from the top and try to dodge stairs? [dont know if thats necessary to know but... yeah redoing stuff early morning ^^ haha]

btw paper pig is up! http://chulewantsacookie.com/paperToyPig.jpg enjoy!

thank you! Cheers!

Hi,

Thanks for promo codes
I tried to run your game but it crashes after trying to load first map.
I'm testing on Ipod 2g, A1288 model. (tech. spec. similar to iphone 3g)

Mode troll on : could you develop a bit ? I don't find the gameplay average at all. it's easy to use, yes, but it could be really deep and offers a lot possibilities IMO.

Okay, I didn't play it but still, cute things acquiring cute objects using player's gestures. I mean come on, we've seen this already. I just imagine the core idea of the game was:

(the 'make' thing is driving me crazy)

What do you mean? You get the error while compiling? Just open up the cygwin installer again and make sure you've checked to install "make". I've made the same mistake.

[dpharaoh]

There is no such thing as an original idea!

I did get it and play it. It's well done and has room for improvement. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a tremendous success. The physics and gameplay work well, it just needs a bit more polish.

I wish I had the art and design skills to do something like that! I can code up a tornado, but can't UV a ball to save my life
