I know that not many people read this blog as of now, but I still think it's important to document my studio's work so far for future reference (like if we become popular later!).
So, Here's What's Been Going on This Month:
TwoD_mentia v0.1.2 was released bringing:
- New levels (and updates for old ones) to players
- Minor bug fixes were made
Quite a bit of P.R. management has been going on:
- Initially I started the project on my DeviantArt profile, posting journals of my progress. I'm not sure I actually got anyone interested in my game here (my total page views are only 400), but I wanted to feel like I was marketing it somehow during development!
- Soon I moved over to code.google using our project page to market to other developers and the Replica Island coding community who were very helpful in giving feedback
- Eventually we forked over the $25 developer fee and uploaded our app to the Android Market! This officially gave us a label as an Android Development Studio
- In attempt to reach a larger audience, we have also uploaded the app to some third party distributors namely, Indievania and SlideMe. We have yet to see significant growth from these markets though
- Finally we created what you see here, our Studio Development Blog
We've reached 200+ downloads for the app in total and have a 5 star rating in the market!
