Hi All,
I’m fairly new to the Android Marketplace and I’ve been trying to figure out what I’m doing wrong before I make any other mistakes. At this time, I’ve released three paid Apps and two Freemium Apps to the Google Play store:
2013-11-13 - “Trailer Park King” Android [RELEASED]
2013-12-10 - “DERP of DUTY” Android [RELEASED]
2013-12-23 - “DERP of DUTY (Free)” Android [RELEASED]
2014-01-01 - “Trailer Park King (Free)” Android [RELEASED]
2014-01-06 - “Trailer Park King Episode 2” Android [RELEASED]
All of these games have been ported from the Xbox (where they did fairly well), the are, edgy, store based point & click adventure games. I understand the this may create somewhat of a polorized market and there is nothing I can do about it since they are ports. That said, the games are fairly polished and should be doing better IMO. Please don’t beat up on my about the games, do you best to help me understand what I’m doing wrong.
Here are some specific questions:
- I’m noticed the first few week or so that there are hardly any sales? Is this normal if you can’t get lots of press coverage?
- Is the paid game model just not the way to go on Android?
- The games are very related and I’m not seeing a lot of synergy between the games?
- What is the best category for these types of games? And why?
Generally, I’m looking for help and advice.
Many Thanks
Sean
