Dash and Smash - multiplayer racing game

[Mateusz]

Hello everyone.

There's been some time since I posted anything here. I was busy and I don't regret it My Run Alien game got 5000+ downloads which is a small success for me. It was my first game ever so it was mainly learning time. I have written good income report which you liked very much. I also got a lot of PMs and feedback from you. You can read the income report HERE.

Dash and Smash is much much bigger project. It's 2D online multiplayer racing game with lots of feature like multiple characters, abilities, worlds, levels, characters can be leveled up and upgraded etc. I will give you much more information soon as I can't reveal everything in one post

This is not an income report yet but I decided to inform you how much time it takes, how much it costs and what are the effects. So first information what I can say is that we are working in 3 people: 2 devs and 1 graphics guy. We didn't spend any money yet but we plan to buy many sounds effects, fonts, and ad campaign of course. The development started about 2-3 months ago and we plan to release the game in November this year. I will inform you soon about more details here

We revealed first world and character. You can see some screenshots on our facebook fanpage: https://www.facebook.com/DashAndSmashGame

Please like the fanpage to hear every news. Also if you like it I will know that you are interested in how this project is being created and I will post here many news about our money spent and earned and more details about production.
It's important for us to keep in touch with our fans. It's multiplayer game so we need good base of players at the beginning.

Any question? Feel free to ask me

And the screenshot of course:

Do you wonder about facebook ads? I tested it few days ago. I spent about 7$ in 3 days. I was promoting my fanpage (https://www.facebook.com/DashAndSmashGame) because the game is not released yet.

The results: 24 likes so it means that one like costs about 0.3$. The question is how many of this people will download the game after realease.

It's worth to say that they still can tell about the game to their friends. That 24 means people which liked the fanpage using the facebook ad.

I will try another 2 7$ campaigns soon with different settings.


Like the fanpgae too if you are itnerested in

Where are those likes from? You will be lucky if 50% download the game, considering as well all the people that will unlike the page before you release the game. I don´t think its a good strategy for a game, but for other types of business like virtual stores. I mean, isn´t better to pay directly for the download?

I targeted the campaign to Polish only this time.

Probably you are right but I just play with it to check if it's worth it. I'm not gonna spend more than 20$ on that anyway

I would advise against building any likes for your facebook page. When you do release the game, and post about it on your facebook page, only 2-3% of people that liked your page will see that post - FACT

I would suggest advertising for app installs on facebook instead. I think that has much better ROI

And if FB is big in Poland, you could probably achieve below $0.05 per install with facebook ads in that country. Just have your ad in Polish and you are good to go

How many downloads and how much revenue these days for this game?

Dude at least read the post before adding your spam.
I can understand the two cents that you make on YouTube Ads May be enough for you and post links everywhere, but your spam is hard to read and its just annoying that you reply for every thread even if you have no content to post.

For the sake of man kind, please stop.
