Top-three countries: 87.1% in The Netherlands, 3.6% in the US, 3.1% in Belgium. :)
That is a dangerous tactic. When a game becomes free for a limited time, lots of people will download it even if they would normally not be...
Just a quick heads-up to prevent other indies from making the same mistake I did. Background: I wrote a game which is quite successful on the...
Dear all, My game "Sjoelen" (a traditional Dutch variant of shufflepuck) has been out for more than a year, and has been quite successul in the...
Ooh... I missed the fact that there's chance involved even if you are featured. Interesting - I should probably have refreshed the page a few...
I can't seem to find the specific categories that appannie mentions. For example, it says that my game Sjoelen is now featured in the Dutch app...
Advanced access Wouldn't it be cool if registered developers somehow got access to hardware as soon as it was first released, as opposed to...
I got two one-star reviews from the same person, which were basically not reviews but questions. Translated to English, the "review" goes...
No. Five tickets with 1/5 chance each don't add up to 1. The real number is closer to 67% chance. To get a 99% chance of winning the $10K,...
