@bmsingha it is difficult to say THe margin (subtract cost of user buying from revenue) is hard to predict. If they have kept 10 cents margin, then yes the game would have made around 2.5 million * 10 cents = $250k. maybe half of that to the dev @125k very good money but not enough to make retirement plans or buy a yatch anyway the margin is very important to predict the income.
well said mate, but this publishers also have existing strong userbase so that not just heavily promote and invest millions but definitely the CPI must be low and that’s the reason we are seeing the game in top 10. I assure for sure it must be around 20 cents or lesser in US and with retention of D1 - 55% and D7 - 22%, it is probably not so costly for them to promote
Why you guys still try to figure out how much he earned when he doesn´t want to tell ? - Congrats man rocked with this game!
Great game man, amazing to see a game build with buildbox can be one of the top games, but honestly the rate isnt good, it's 3.7 which isnt good when users see the rate and reviews before they download it, I have a game that has 3.6 rate, and some bad reviews, we have to improve these games, at least games should have 4.0 rate.
I never asked him how much he is making. I was asking if the hype was met. with so many people on buildbox and twitter pushing hypercasual as a big thing offering courses, books and so on i just want to understand if it live up to it. and what is wrong to making estimates? Everyone should know abt these simple ways of estimating how much money you will make if you spend hours and hours doing game dev.
@manupr I just wanted to tell you that this thread is about the game and not about our dicussion or your estimation no offense! Have a good day
@mastermind131, I have submitted a game to crazylabs by tab tale, they liked the game video and asked for an apk, I provided the apk version of the game, but it has been 2 days, they haven't responded. So I wanted to know that, how many days does it take for them to respond, according to your experience working with them Your response will be highly appreciated. And yes, I am a big fan of SNAKE VS COLORS, wonderful game..!!
What does it involve updating it since it was ported to unity? You add an update in BB and they port it?
