nooskewl, games, and me

So… the 1.3 update is being tested now by Tony and myself. I hope it to be ready within a week. It’s a pretty neat update, lots of bonus stuff in there… but don’t take my word for it.

There have been a number of reviews of Monster RPG 2 in the past week. Some good, some not so good. We knew we were taking a risk releasing a retro style game to a hip market. We feel it’s an awesome product, so the not so good reviews don’t bother us. Do yourself a favor and try the demo, and see for yourself.

It’s easy to get lost in the App Store mayhem and plummet off of the charts. That’s exactly what M2 has done. We had a nice ride. We were featured in “New and Noteworthy” on iTunes. We had a tremendous amount of positive support from people on the Touch Arcade forums. Now things have settled down. We want everyone who is a fan of the M2 genre to get a copy of the game, so we’ve been giving out promos a lot. Now we’ve put the game on sale for a week ($1.99 now, was $2.99).

I don’t know what’s next for Monster RPG 2 or the Monster RPG series. I have every intention of making a second sequel to the original, but after our “top sekrit” project we’re working on now. I’m happy with the success of Monster RPG 2, and I don’t think it’s going to go away just yet.

To summarize: Update coming soon. M2 a hit with some but not everyone. M2 on sale this week for $1.99.
