First week of Free Android Game release – still 1+ installs :)

Continue story of my RoboQuads: War Robots game journey πŸ™‚ First of all – new logo presentation:

Share your thoughts about it – it’s always pleasure to read them, especially – negative one (seriously).

Android game developing 2 years – and now have 1+ installs on Google Play after one week of it’s release. What I learned about it:

Develop game – is not always about Developing πŸ˜‰

Actually I knew this thing (have years of experience in develop other software and promote it), but thought that on Google Play with Free game it will be easier. No, it’s harder πŸ™‚

You can make a good game, it can be a really good – but it will be somewhere at the bottom of a list – if it will be there at all. No matter – how game is good – you will be out. I’m not crying – I understand this, really, just thought that there will be some 10-100 installs from it, not one.

Want some feedback? You will not have it!

After posting game links to some facebook and other resources – I have a lot of comments. Let’s try to sort them out:

  1. β€œDo you really want someone to play it? Are you joking?” – cool, yeah? Maybe game is not so good – and I will be glad to hear about this, as more critics I get – as better I can be. But those comments about nothing can’t help in any way.
  2. β€œGame looks good” – thanks πŸ˜‰
  3. β€œVideo s..k”, β€œIcon s..k”, β€œSite s..k” – ok, this is good, will order video promo in some professional, re-developed icon according to recommends, and changed site design accordingly – really guys, thank you all for this!

But main thing – no one actually played a game! I had 2 active installs before posting (me and my girlfriend) – and 3 after (I guess it was download from man who I asked to do promo video for it). So actually 0 (zero!) feedback about a game πŸ˜‰

Zero investments to promote free android game

Exactly, zero (0) $ of investments. I just wanted to look at β€œnaked” play store – how it work, what is a value there for products. For now – as I see – I need to work harder on social media. But how exactly – this is a question) If you have some comments – don’t hesitate to write them bellow.

Want back to my code πŸ˜‰

No, really – I fully understand why it’s going in this way. And for sure – I understand that game promotion is a hard work, and people who take money for this – they not just click β€œshare” – and that’s all. This is a big work – and I will try to do my best on it. Will publish more updates later with results πŸ˜‰

Share your thoughts about this bellow – just want to know: is this me, or everybody have same experiences.
