Congrats! This game plays better than so many obstacle avoidance games...it's hypnotic to play super creative level design! Impressive use of some reward videos too (Unity Ads, Ad Colony, Google). First time i tried to open the game it crashed on the main menu immediately and right before I received any messages about Game Center. The second time I opened it it worked. Crashed on Thread 11 (WebThread?)...i would think it's difficult to get featured if it crashes at boot.
@Aaron F Great game! I love the graphics, the mechanics is superb and the music is awesome! Congrats!!!
I like the music and atmosphere a lot, but am not a fan of the intrusive video interstitial ads at all. Also, for the slow movement of the game, the movement of the character is very fast. This remembers me of being the neurotic myself in a Buddhist cloister, but I don't know if I like it or not. I think time will tell. Also, I'm installing now all games on my old iPhone 4s to see if it works on older devices too. No crashes but it lags a lot because of all these effects. Probably better to announce it in the description(?). Great to see BB Games keep going. Who did the game development this time? Wish you lot of success. Yeah. Congrats on the feature!!!!
@Christoph You make a great point about the video ads and I actually just adjusted them so thanks for the heads up. One of the great things about using mediation like Heyzap is you can adjust which networks to use on the back end. I was actually just speaking to AdColony today and they do not support skippable videos anymore so I just turned them off. Thanks for the shout! The game was developed by Sven at Daily Life Apps
Horray! That's encouraging! #9 slot is pretty good! What country is that? I don't see it in the USA app store feature :\
So Shadows has been featured in 15 countries mostly in Latin America. My first screenshot was from the Spain store. Unfortunatley, we didn't make the main page in the US however, we did manage to get featured in the US for each category. It looks like we pulled in over 10,000 downloads on the first day! Congrats to Sven and the team for your hard work.
How did you get the feature list of Spain? I was looking all over the Internet of how to find the different countries but the only thing I found was to change the country of the Apple ID which is a real pain.
@Christoph I'm using iTunes to view the App Store on a Mac. If you scroll to the bottom, on the right side, there is a button with the flag of the country you are in. You can click this button to view other countries.
